"The word "co-determination", or "Mitbestimmung" in German, is commonly heard outside of Germany but it's actual meaning is often unclear.
This collection of texts aims to provide a basic explanation of what co-determination is all about, how it functions in practice and what it means to the Germans and to Germany as whole. The relationship between the German co-determination system and developments within Europe are also considered."
