Går vi mot en kjosifisering av arbeidslivet?

Nytt Norsk Tidsskrift (NNT) s. 206-218 Doi: https://doi.org/10.18261/issn.1504-3053-2018-03-04-02

Nye trender i arbeidslivet som økt bruk av midlertidighet og innleie har negative konsekvenser. Det er kjent at atypisk arbeid reduserer graden av fagorganisering, men når det brukes aktivt for å svekke ansattes forhandlingsmakt, truer det også organisert arbeid. Ved å se denne typen praksis i sammenheng med mer autoritære ledelsesformer og mindre medbestemmelse, stilles det spørsmål om disse fenomenene inngår i en større trend som radikalt kan endre arbeidslivet og dermed undergrave den norske modellen.

Orchestrating a New industrial Field. The case of the Finnish wood-based bioeconomy

International Journal of Business Environment 9(3) s. 266-278 Doi: https://doi.org/10.1504/IJBE.2017.10008889

The article's focus is on how companies and institutions interact and cooperate in order to develop the wood-based bioeconomy field. Based on a case study of the Finnish forest sector, the paper shows that shifting to sustainability requires processes of co-creation. As radical innovation requires complementary competences, companies have had to cooperate with a large number of actors. By interacting with multiple actors at multiple levels, both companies and institutions have engaged in new types of activities that have led to a change in their respective roles. By taking on responsibility for developing the new industrial field, both companies and institutions act as orchestrators for mobilising a large number of public and private actors. Subsequently, the paper argues that this interaction has produced a new type of complementarity between companies and institutions facilitating the development of the new industrial field.The article's focus is on how companies and institutions interact and cooperate in order to develop the wood-based bioeconomy field.

Weakening trade union power: New forms of employment relations. The case of the Norwegian Air Shuttle

Transfer - European Review of Labour and Research 23(4) s. 425-439 Doi: https://doi.org/10.1177/1024258917703547

For the past two decades – and in particular after the 2008 crisis – atypical employment has expanded across Europe. The crisis led to increased demand for more flexible labour markets, and thus atypical employment became an important tool for employment, competitiveness and economic growth. However, recent research reveals that employers are using atypical employment not just to compensate for unstable markets, but also as an opportunity to cut costs by bypassing collective agreements and to discipline workers, works councils and unions. The case study presented in this article corroborates these findings, arguing that employers – in addition to reducing costs – are making use of atypical employment to weaken organised labour as a goal in its own right. Whether such behaviour forms part of a larger drive to resist unions needs to be further researched. In any event, atypical employment represents an increasing challenge to trade unions across Europe.

Succeeding in international competition by making use of home-country institutions

Critical Perspectives on International Business 12(1) s. 83-99 Doi: https://doi.org/10.1108/cpoib-12-2013-0051

Purpose – This paper aims to addresses the question how a low-cost carrier (LCC) embedded in a coordinated market economy is succeeding in a highly competitive industry with a strong cost focus. Design/methodology/approach – This paper reports the results of a case study of a LCC (Norwegian Air Shuttle). The case study draws on both organizational and institutional theory as to how the international business environment and the national institutional framework continuously impact on its strategies. Findings – It is found that home-country high wage levels and strong labour regulation have been overcome by developing firm-specific capabilities based on active employee involvement which aligns with the tradition of the national system of industrial relations. Research limitations/implications – The present case study provides an input for further research on how actors deal with conflicting pressures. It supports the varieties of capitalism (VOC) argument that national institutional arrangements influence firms and actors’ strategies and practices, but it also supports the call within institutional theories for a more malleable conceptualizing of the link between actors and institutions than is the case in the VOC models. Originality/value – The paper provides an account of a successful case in a highly competitive international business despite disadvantages linked with home-country institutions.

Norway: Entrapped by the refinement of raw materials or saved by a growing periphery of innovative agents?

P. H. Kristensen and K. Lilja (eds), New modes of globalizing: experimentalist forms of economic organization and enabling welfare institutions

Norway is performing remarkably well. For several years in a row the United Nations has named Norway the best country in the world to live in (Human Development Reports). The population enjoys one of the highest levels of GDP per capita, an egalitarian distribution of wealth, and generous welfare state arrangements. Yet, Norway is trailing the other Nordic countries in terms of economic dynamism. On the World Economic Forum’s ranking lists, Norway has been ranked lowest among the Nordic countries and has most recently dropped significantly behind. The country is ranked very low on international innovation scoreboards (cf. EIS), is blamed for investing too little in R&D, less than 1.7 per cent of GDP which is well below the OECD average, and is less integrated into the globalized economy than the other Nordic countries. Are these indicators symptoms of a nation about to be trapped by the paradox of plenty? Has Norway failed to sustain and develop a dynamic and competitive economy for future challenges?
