Blackwell Handbook of International Andcomparative Human Resource Management
By SCHULER
0 - Default Title
Description
The intention is that each chapter will stand as a definitive statement on the field it addresses, summarising the relevant key issues, theories, frameworks and findings, and providing the author with an opportunity to establish their position. Chapters will be solicited from outstanding authors in the fields throughout the world (but primarily from the US, UK, Northern Europe, SE Asia and Australia).
The Handbook will be split into four main sections. The first section covers the field of comparative HRM. It will be structured around a model of comparative HRM developed by Schuler, Begin, Sparrow and Braun. The second theme in this section will outline some of the key ingredients that make HRM distinctive in different parts of the world. The latest thinking on the role of national cutlure, national business systems and country origin will be outlined. These chapters will develop some of the factors identified in Chapter 1. The third theme then applied the framework to a series of regions and countries around the world. This will ensure a complete ysis of the different comparative systems, engage a broader range of national audiences, and enable discussion of HRM in advanced, newly liberalising and developing industrial contexts. The editors have identified the Asia Pacific Rim, Latin America, North America, Europe and Developing Economies as the regions to be covered. Leading national experts within each of these regions will contribute country-specific yses. Each chapter will follow the structure outlined from Chapter 1. The second section covers the field of international HRM. This moves chapters into the territory of MNCs, expatriates and the international manager.
