| Tiivistelmä: | Participative management provides a profound challenge to traditional organizations of work. In this paper the author uses a model of workplace organizations that combines elements from Blauner's technology-based model and Edwards's labor-control model to evaluate workers' experiences of alienation and freedom across different systems of production. The results provide partial support for Blauner's U-shaped curve of declining then increasing freedom under modern forms of production. Under participative organizations of work, however, positive and meaningful experiences in the workplace do not return to the same levels that they achieved under the craft organization of work. Relations among coworkers evidence less improvement under participative organizations of work than task and management-related aspects of work. |
