A chapter in Collective Bargaining and Wage Formation, 2005, pp 9-34 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The consequences of further international product market integration for wage bargaining are discussed. It is argued that current changes in international interactions pose new challenges for wage formation. In particular, the scope for appropriating rents may be affected, and it may become more difficult or costly to maintain centralized wage bargaining arrangements with solidaristic elements. At the same time, the demand for insurance mechanisms may increase, which is a particular challenge for the Nordic countries.
