Synopsis

Looks at the connection between the deep economic and social crisis in Finland during the 1990s and in changes in the pattern of working hours in the country. Explains that Finns do not like part-time work very much and that women and men work for more equal time than in any other country in the European Union, but flexibility and local bargaining has made a breakthrough. Analyzes what exactly happened and what the role of the government was in it. There is no index. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
