Law, Corporate Governance and Partnerships at Work

This book examines how businesses manage their labour systems, and particularly how they manage the complex interaction of various factors which give rise to instances of 'partnership' style relations between capital and labour within businesses. In pursuing this task, the book draws upon a new and extensive set of empirical data constructed by the authors, which examines the activities of business corporations in Australia, their outlooks and relationships with stakeholders, and relates these to two new and evolving theoretical frameworks based in political economy and law.
