内容説明
Concerning itself with the relationship between corporate planning and local communities who must live with the consequences of corporate decisions, this book is based on a case study of the partial closure of the Rover Group's plant at Cowley in Oxford (part of whose work is to be transferred to Honda's new, non-union plant on a green-field site at Swindon). The authors show how corporations take decisions based on private profitability which override the interests of workers and communities.
