Abstract
Explores the changing nature of the relationship between buyers and suppliers in the UK automotive industry, using research evidence from two major companies in this sector, Nissan and Lucas Industries, and incorporates these changes into wider debates on the social relations of production and changing work practices. Illustrates these changes in work practices through transformations in recruitment and training practices in large automotive companies.
