Abstract:

This paper compares the relationship between protest and social concertation in new versus established democracies. It argues that when confronted with labor market deregulation, the same institutions that are supposed to incorporate labor in the formulation and execution of economic and social policies have increased protest in new democracies but mitigated it in their established counterparts. Inclusive institutions such as tripartite concertation have featured prominently in processes of democratic transition and consolidation. Many new democracies, however, appear to lack the historical, institutional and organizational preconditions deemed necessary for these kinds of policies to succeed. The paper demonstrates that labor inclusion in policy making is not so much absent from the politics of labor relations in new democracies, but rendered ineffectual by government and employer strategies vis-ŕ-vis labor unions.
