Toyotaism and Uddevallaism are not the End of History!

Chapter 6 in After Fordism, 1993, pp 55-63 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract It is certainly possible to emphasise the strong continuities that bind different production systems together. According to this view, flexible mass production could never be more than a deepening of the scientific organisation of work, the equivalent of the transition from Ford’s model ‘T’ to the annual model change instigated by General Motors (see Figure 6.1). This diagnosis of great continuity is reinforced in countries where nostalgia for Fordism is strong.
