Abstract: Abstract Comparative and international industrial relations have been one of the major growth industries throughout the 1990s (Bamber and Lansbury, 1998; Ferner and Hyman, 1998; Van Ruysseveldt and Visser, 1996; Hyman and Ferner, 1994, among others). One amazing feature of these more recent trends has been the fact that public sector labor or employment relations have not played any major role in this comparative analysis although different kinds of information have been available from national levels and pressures for change and modernization have been increasing in all industrialized countries.
