Excerpt from Japanese Industrial Relations in Transition In preparing this paper, the author benefited greatly from inspiring discussions with Prof. Henry Rosovsky of Harvard University and Prof. Hugh Patrick of Columbia University. The author would also like to thank Prof. Thomas Kochan, Prof. Lisa Lynch. Joel Cutcher-Gershenfeld, and other colleagues of Sloan School of Management, M.I.T., for their helpful comments. John Paul MacDuffie, from the Sloan School of Management, kindly assisted with the style of my sentences. Needless to say, however, the author alone is responsible for all the errors and biases remaining in the paper.

Price probes the paradoxes in postwar labor-management relations, particularly in the years between 1945 and 1975. Basing his analysis on the history of labor in Mitsui's Miike mine in Kyushu, Suzuki Motors in Hamamatsu, and Moriguchi City Hall, the author questions the common interpretation that industrial relations are based on lifetime jobs, seniority-based wages, and enterprise unions. He also asks whether Japanese workers have been genuinely empowered by the developments in recent years.

This book denies the cultural uniqueness of Japanese industrial relations and economy, characterised by permanent employment, seniority wages and enterprise unionism. The author provides an entirely new explanation of Japanese workers' high morale and Japan's impressive economic performance which, he argues, results from skilled employees working against a background of high technology. The argument of the book is based on intensive field-work, consisting of a series of interviews with veteran workers on the shop floor, and on an explicit comparative study between the USA and Japan.
