劳动关系研究的当代理论争论及对创新中国特色劳动关系协调机制的启示

不同国家之间的劳动关系协调模式存在着系统性差异,这种差异会逐渐走向趋同还是继续保持多样性是当代劳动关系研究的核心理论争论之一。按照这一主题,相关理论在当代的演进大体上可以划分为三个阶段,包括20世纪50-80年代的趋同理论、80年代中后期到2000年左右的资本主义多样性理论、2000年以后的制度逐渐变迁理论。上述理论的争论及其历史演进对创新中国特色劳动关系协调机制具有重要的启发意义,特别是相关理论中对主要发达经济体劳动关系协调模式的分类和走向的预测,以及对劳动关系制度和其他经济政治制度之间互补性的强调,为我国劳动关系协调机制的构建提供了重要的概念工具。

The Contemporary Theoretical Debates on Labor Relations Research and Its Enlightenment to the Innovation of Labor Relations Coordination Mechanism with Chinese Characteristics

There are systemic differences in the coordination mode of labor relations between different countries. Whether this difference will gradually converge or continue to maintain its diversity is one of the core theoretical debates in contemporary labor relations research. According to this theme, the contemporary evolution of related theories can be roughly divided into three stages, including the theory of convergence in the 1950 s and 1980 s, the theory of capitalist diversity from the mid to late 1980 s to around 2000, and the theory of gradual system change after 2000. The above-mentioned theoretical controversy and its historical evolution have important enlightening significance for the innovation of labor relations coordination mechanism with Chinese characteristics. Specifically, the prediction of the classification and trend of labor relations coordination modes in major developed economies in related theories, and the emphasis on complementarity between political systems of other economies and labor relations systems provide an important conceptual tool for the construction of our country’s labor relations coordination mechanism.
