$23.96
Edited by Edward J. Carberry
Since the emergence of different experiments with employee ownership in the early twentieth century, a growing group of companies and expanding set of institutions have opened the door for firms to share the financial returns of economic production with broad groups of employees. The growth of various forms of "shared capitalism" has meant that currently a little under half of all employees in the private sector own stock in the companies in which they work or receive cash-based bonuses linked to different measures of corporate performance. This book showcases the diverse state of cutting-edge academic work from 24 researchers on shared capitalism in the United States and Western Europe. Its eleven chapters represent a cross-section of current research, lively debates, and new research initiatives.
