Description

This academic work, originally published in 1987, examines the economic and industrial context in which profit-sharing and co-partnership schemes emerged across Britain during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The author investigates the economic foundations of these arrangements, analysing the perspectives of both advocates and critics to understand what made these systems attractive or problematic to different stakeholders. Through detailed examination of employer motivations and implementation of landmark schemes such as Lever Brothers' pioneering profit-sharing model, the text reveals how these initiatives shaped modern management thinking and industrial relations practices. This Routledge Library Edition offers scholarly insight into a pivotal period of British industrial history, exploring whether profit-sharing represented genuine class collaboration or masked underlying class conflict within industrial capitalism.
