Add your own review!

Overview

Originally published in 1963, The Landsorganisationen I Sverige (LO – Swedish Confederation of Trades Unions), enjoys an international reputation as a trade union movement with progressive ideas on wage policy and collective bargaining. The authors of this volume who are trade union economists, deal critically with credit policy; plead for free trade; are outspoken on company taxation, wage policy, the labour market and the location of industry. Throughout the authors are outspoken in their emphasis on growth and change, which they interpret as change in the outlook of the unions as well as in that of industry and of the government.
