The Emergence of Transnational Industrial Democracy?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2023
This Chapter brings together key themes running through the book. Its central argument is that the Rana Plaza disaster initiated a number of responses which had at their centre the aim of building institutions for worker representation across global supply chains: transnational industrial democracy. However, to adapt to the political and economic context of global supply chains, this was very much a market driven form of democracy. The chapter goes on to highlight the key features of this approach, as well as its structural limitations. We conclude by highlighting that key lessons can be drawn to inform future initiatives to develop worker representation in supply chains.
