Peter Hartz, Job Revolution. Frankfurter Allgemeine 2002
The book Job Revolution by Peter Hartz was published by Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and the Volkswagen corporation. Peter Hartz –Volkswagen s head of human resources– was the character mask for the reforms that would make Germany a low-wage country and a leading nation in exports. The reforms were carried out via the construction of a national consensus - aided by newspapers like FAZ, the heads of the churches, the unions, the political parties, think tanks like the Bertelsmann Stiftung –and, step by step, they came to substitute democratic decision-making.
