The Left's Dirty Job (eBook, PDF)

The Politics of Industrial Restructuring in France and Spain

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The Left's Dirty Job compares the experiences of recent socialist governments in France and Spain, examining how the governments of Franois Mitterrand (1981-1995) and Felipe Gonzalez (1982-1996) provide a key test of whether a leftist approach to industrial restructuring is possible. Taking the unusual position that these governments' policies were generally similar to those in European countries, this study provides insight into these important socialist governments.
