| Abstract: | This article is based on a study of the employment practices of one Italian-owned multinational corporation (MNC) and one US-owned MNC in the Italian quick-food service sector. It examines such issues as work organization, unionization, employee representation and pay and conditions. The article focuses on the concept of dominance and the related convergence and divergence theses. The results suggest that dominance can not only be interpreted as a mode of employment or production emanating from one country, but it could also be associated with one dominant MNC in one sector. |
