Abstract

This paper explores changes in industrial relations in the German automotive sector. Historically, this sector has generated important insights about national ‘models’ and the political economy of work. It is argued that vertical disintegration has created new market-mediated boundaries that have undermined existing patterns of organised industrial relations.
