Abstract
In this article Japanisation is used as a shorthand term for the diffusion of Japanese management systems and practices, whether this be via Japanese direct investment overseas or the emulation of such systems and practices in nonJapanese organisations. Based on the philosophies of total quality control TQC and justintime JIT production, the Japanese organisational form has been held up as a new paradigm which challenges the logic of traditional Western production regimes Aoki 1987 Oliver and Wilkinson 1988a and has crucial implications for both intra and interorganisational structures and relations of power and control Wilkinson and Oliver 1989.
