The Politics of Workers'' Participation: The Peruvian Approach in Comparative Perspective presents a comparative analysis of the development of workers'' participation in a variety of politico-economic systems in Peru to other countries in the world. The text focuses on the details of workers'' participation in politics and enterprise; empirical evidence substantiating that workers'' participation is an issue of fundamental political conflict; and the social forces that promote and oppose workers'' participation as part of a transition to a new social order. Political scientists, economists, sociologists, and students will find the book invaluable.
