This research examines the following central question: why two different labor strategies and practices emerge from within the same TFT-LCD (thin film transistor and liquid crystal display) industry and the same country, Taiwan? And what kinds of labor strategies and practices are found in two science industry parks? In studying two case studies in Taiwan, this research finds that two similar TFT-LCD firms use different labor practices and strategies for pursuing their own interests and further develop two different labor systems. This research draws on two approaches in examining labor practices and strategies in Taiwan. The first, Frederic Deyo's labor system approach, provides a general analytical framework for characterizing and understanding practices that help transform potential labor into actualized labor: market allocation, labor's social reproduction, and control and actualization in the labor process itself. The second perspective is that of Hall and Soskice's Varieties of Capitalism approach, which emphasizes that the behavior of firms is shaped by institutional arrangements, such as labor markets, training and education institutions and labor-management relations that sustain different types of capitalist development, or the varieties of capitalism. However, while these institutional arrangements shape firm behaviors, they also comprise opportunity structures that firms selectively seek to exploit. This gives firms more autonomy and choice than simpler argument that institutional arrangements determine firm behaviors. The object of this research is to look beyond the site of production, across national institutions, and concentrate on the active role of firms. The labor systems in Taiwan highlight various roles that national and local institutions, local politics, and employers play regarding three key elements of labor institutions: labor markets, education and training institutions, and labor-management relations.
