“…But exactly the SE creates a new option for various reasons as we will explain. In a detailed analysis of these first cases, one can not identify specific trends concerning the distribution of SEs according to size and sectors (Keller/Werner 2008a). The size of the first SEs differs to a considerable degree.…”

“…The SE constitutes a mere option for companies' managements, whereas in the case of EWC there is the requirement to adjust to existing regulation, if the legal preconditions are fulfilled and the employees take the initiative (Keller/Werner 2008a). In the next section we will come back to this extremely uneven distribution across countries.…”

“…The EU candidate countries ought to adapt and harmonize the directives and regulations in their own legal mechanisms with acquis communautaire and they must harmonize social dialogue, the renewal of tripartite concentration, bilateral and trilateral exchange of information and consultation, and social protection within the EU social model structure (A. Aliu, 2012;Cressey & Jones, 1995;Keller, 2008;Keller & Werner, 2008;Leisink, Steijn, & Veersma, 2007;Streeck, 1998).…”

The aim of this research is to examine the public policy influences on academic investigations that contain a substantial convergence among human resource management-industrial relations and corporate social responsibility-stakeholder approach by means of using bibliometric and content analyses of relevant publications in the Scopus and ScienceDirect databases. Totally, 160 publications were subject to bibliometric, cluster, and summative content analyses. In this context, this study claims that public policy in the EU influences academic investigations and scholars. The investigation draws attention to the importance of active participation of different public institutions and key stakeholders (e.g., trade unions, works councils, academic associations) that prepare a basis for collaboration, solidarity, and communication for strengthening EU social model, social dialogue, collective bargaining, and the protection of social rights. The research findings illuminate the fact that European public policies have significant effects on shaping and encouraging investigations that are considered within the scope of IR-HRM and CSR-SA. One of the most crucial recommendations of this study is that the investigations which are out of this framework can be considered quite idealistic. Therefore, researchers may attempt to publish more scientific investigations in frame of IR-HRM and CSR-SA to enhance the comprehensiveness and depth of these two clusters.

By way of contrast, Stettes (2006) reports that in 2005 every seventh newly established private limited company in Germany was registered according to the legal form of the UK, thereby avoiding German codetermination laws. …”

“…15 15 Indeed, one contemporary survey concludes that even the establishment of the European Company (SE) offering alternative forms of corporate governance without parity representation does not seem to have changed this: “At least for the time being there is no trend toward ‘escape from codetermination’ or its ‘erosion,’ as is feared by (quite a few) trade unionists” (Keller and Werner 2008: 69); see also Hans Böckler Stiftung (2010). …”

Despite its seeming lack of attractiveness to other countries, the German system of quasi-parity codetermination at company level has held up fairly well. We recount the theoretical arguments for and against this form of codetermination, and survey the evolving empirical evidence on its economic impact. On both counts, employee representation on company boards might form part of the apparatus of good corporate governance, even if the extent of representation and the composition of the worker side are unsettled issues. Whatever the particular past merits of the case, however, the bottom line is that the recent availability of alternative forms of corporate governance will increasingly shape the German institution.
