Abstract
The term "tripartism" is widely used in industrial relations jargon and can be used to refer to a wide range of concepts. For the purposes of this publication however "tripartism" describes institutional arrangements for consultation and/or negotiation between representatives of workers, employers and governments in the formulation of public policy on social and economic issues. The ILO is itself an international tripartite institution and throughout its long history has advocated the virtues of such arrangements at national level.
This publication deals with the development of tripartite arrangements at national level in Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and the Slovak Republic. The book concentrates on the period following the dramatic political upheavals in the region at the end of the 1980s and traces the experiments with tripartism in the previously uncharted waters of economic transition up to the mid-1990s.
