Companies and work have undergone significant change in the last
two decades, and a new productive model has emerged. This book
shows how this model works and argues that it has a high degree of
coherence in terms of the integration of functions within
companies. It also addresses the relation between 'just in time'
teamwork and new ways of employee mobilization which together lead
to increased productivity. From this evidence, Durand creates a new
and challenging theory of services which is nevertheless firmly
rooted in the concrete experience of workshops and offices.
This book is an important and original account of life in the new lean production workplace - the car industry where it all began. It brings together the two emblematic features of the 20th century: a working class meant to topple the social order, and a product that largely provided the developmental model of that same order. This book is neither a retrospective assessment nor a prediction for the future: it reveals what has changed and what has remained the same, in a workplace that remains a major part of the makeup of our society.
