Chapter Robert Reich. Tecnologia, lavoro, distribuzione, e rappresentanza: la parabola di un liberal-radicale
Abstract
In The work of nations: preparing ourselves for 21st-century capitalism Reich considers technological innovation as a close relationship between new technologies and new human capital, to determine the standard of living of workers and a central point is differences between skilled and unskilled workers. In this context the Unions, born as a representation of the homogeneous work of mass production, would lose their centrality in favor of the politics, i. e. of liberal democratic élites. In latest Saving capitalism: for the many not for the few, Reich discovers again the central role of Unions of workers, at company level, both in cooperative and real power terms.
