Lean production in North America: myth and reality

Carl H.A. Dassbach

Chapter 8 in Global Money, Capital Restructuring and the Changing Patterns of Labour, 1999, pp 111-124 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The last two decades have seen a reshaping of the international economy together with a radical weakening in the conditions of the working class. New productive techniques and new methods in the organisation of labour have been implemented on a world-wide scale partly as a consequence of the financialization of capital. The geographical diffusion of market relations has continued and with it the dominance of capital in all realms of social reproduction. In charting this change, the book offers an alternative view of contemporary capitalism.
