| Abstract: | The article discusses whether and in what ways Industrial relations (IR) research is affected by various pressures of internationalization. Based on a comparative, longitudinal study of journal publications in the USA, Britain and Germany, the findings reveal significantly different patterns of IR research across the three countries. In particular, the strong variation btw. U.S. and British research patterns challenges the common notion of a homogeneous Anglo-Saxon style in conducting social science research. The analysis suggests that despite growing internationalization, IR research continues to be strongly embedded in nationally specific research cultures and traditions. |
