Comparative Government-Industry Relations: Western Europe, the United States, and Japan

The ever-present tension between industry, which is ruled by the logic of the market, and government, which is ruled by the logic of the political process, is a subject much discussed but little investigated. These original essays draw on recent research on government-industry relations to present a comparative overview of the political economy in West Germany, France, Britain, the United States, and Japan. This work is the first volume in the series Government-Industry Relations, which will explore the relationship between government and industry in various capitalist economies.Wilks, Stephen is the author of 'Comparative Government-Industry Relations: Western Europe, the United States, and Japan', published 1987 under ISBN 9780198274933 and ISBN 0198274939.
