Items related to Worker Capitalism: The New Industrial Relations
Worker Capitalism makes the case for a pragmatic, government-assisted program of worker and worker-community ownership of businesses as a means of economic redevelopment, particularly in older industrial countries. Worker ownership, the authors contend, is a potentially superior alternative to industrial policies such as subsidies or protection. They seek to isolate the factors necessary for successful employee ownership and develop a general takeover strategy. Case studies of successful conversions to employee ownership - and one failure - from the United States, Canada, France, and the United Kingdom conclude the book.

Review:
"Bradley and Gelb show that employee ownership makes good economic sense in clearly defined circumstances."
- Harvard Business Review
"Worker Capitalism is enjoyable reading. It should be widely read by those interested in the debate on industrial policy, and in the evolution of industrial organization. Also, throughout the book there are valuable insights into the different ideological settings that form the basis for understanding the industrial relations systems in the United Sates and Britain.... Of special interest is the capsule listing of successful employee takeovers of firms or plants, and their history as employee-owned organizations."
- The Wall Street Review of Books
