DIALOGUE

Like capital, like labor
For over 200 years an idea of inevitability of fight between labor and capital determined the strategy of companies and corporations, philosophy of management and labor relations, policy and culture of capitalism. Today we witness the end of successor epoch in economic history of mankind. The post-war "social pact" between labor and capital based on their peaceful coexistence has been broken. In fact, the capital has pulled out of the social agreement and pursues more aggressive policy against the organized labor. With the emergence of global economic crisis the identical processes set off in Greece, Spain, and Ukraine.
Expert opinion
While Ukraine is at war with foreign investors, minor Slovakia used their aid to create 100,000 jobs
Olexandr Vyshniak, Ph. D., Director of Ukrainian Sociology Service
Labor force is a commodity like any other. Until there is a monopolist, s/he can dictate her/his wage conditions; when there exists competition, s/he loses the upper-hand position. Hence, the resistance to foreign investors creating competition in Ukrainian labor market.
