Abstract
For many years after publication of The Transformation of American Industrial
Relations (Koch an, Katz & McKersie 1986), we observed only scant evidence that the
transformation process, especially at the strategic level, was actually taking place.
Finally, now, in the mid-1990s,'à wide range of activities under the banner of labour-
management, strategic partnerships can be seen, and they possess the potential to bring
forth a new paradigm in employment relationships. Many examples in both the
manufacturing and public sectors can be found in the United States, Britain, and Ireland,
as well as other European countries.
