Title Beyond Global Uniformity: Managerial Strategies in Romania's Industrial Sector
Summary By focusing on two manufacturing plants – a plastics factory and the Nokia factory – which are located in Cluj County, Romania, my research aims to describe the diverse modes of organizing which reflect capital's adaptation strategies to specific localities. Both production units relocated to Cluj in 2007, starting their activities during a period of political and economic reconfiguration in the region. In spite of these convergences, the two companies operate in distinct ways from a management point of view. As a result, this paper seeks to answer two questions: how do organizational management strategies vary in the case of Cluj? How do workers experience, respond and possibly resist these organizational practices?
