Περιγραφή
Περίληψη:This article offers a comparative and historical study of the mobilizing factors (Davis and Thompson, 1994) influencing co-determination in France and Germany. In Germany, political opportunity, shared stakeholder interests, the presence of a social infrastructure, the dynamics of mobilization, and the presence of a supporting institution enabled co-determination to take hold (Gomez and Wirtz, 2018). These ingredients were not present in France, despite reflection on the nature of the enterprise justifying co-determination. We thus contribute to understanding the institutionalization of a political ideology and show how two countries that are relatively close politically can take different trajectories.
