Abstract

Christian Berggren's response to our article is gratifying because, like him, we believe that the debate over the merits of different production systems is important. There is more at stake than the competitive success of auto companies. The outcome of this debate will also shape the future quality of work for millions of people around the world. We therefore want to use this opportunity to clarify the points of agreement and disagreement and, more importantly perhaps, to identify the issues that will need to be resolved in future rounds of research and dialogue.
