Summary
Adopting a comparative approach and covering four countries over the period 1950-1990, studies the relationship between parties, government, and public sector employees. Examines how different parties and governments treat public sector employees, with regard to level of employment, wages, workers rights and the right to engage in political activity, focusing on whether parties and governments of the left are more generous towards public sector employees than those of the right.
