Introduction

Abstract

This volume of Advances in the Economic Analysis of Participatory and Labor-Managed Firms comprises nine original research chapters and a short comment.¹ The chapters cover a broad range of topics: from share ownership plan membership to determinants and performance outcomes of adoption of high performance work and pay practices, to changes in traditional participatory organizations. Geographically, the chapters span over a relatively wide range: from Northern Europe, a southeast European transition economy, Israel, Korea, Japan to an international corporation with operations in at least four continents.
