Post-Fordism
Wiley-Blackwell (Verlag)
978-0-631-18857-5 (ISBN)
Part analysis of contemporary change and part vision of the future, post-Fordism lends its name to a set of challenging, essential and controversial debates over the nature of capitalism's newest age. This book provides a superb introduction to these debates and their far-reaching implications, and includes key texts by post-Fordism's major theorists and commentators.
Ash Amin works in the Centre for Urban and Regional Development Studies at the University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK. He is the editor, most recently, of Globalisation, Institutions and Regional Development in Europe (with Nigel Thrift).
