Abstract: When focusing on countries at different stages of industrial development, a political economy approach to comparative industrial relations analysis avoids the problem of a Eurocentric framework, which excludes countries in regions such as Southeast Asia. Taking the employment relationship as the 'core industrial relation' in capitalist countries, a hierarchy of explanatory variables is used. These variables are first, the mode of production, second, the labour process and finally the historical and cultural specificities of each country. Using these as the basis for analysis, this paper examines industrial relations in ASEAN countries, primarily Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand.
