it implies a perception of what it means to be governable to one group of people.
Their version of governable seems to mean compliant.
It's not inherently good or bad but it is a particular perspective that I can't see working well in some cultures.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoCompliant means showing up on time and working per the agreed upon terms. Compliant does not mean accepting piss poor pay and poor work life balance.
- avs733 5y agoexactly...compliant is a two way street.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoCompliance assumes there is an underlying agreement or need to comply. Characterizing TSMC not being able to find sufficient people to accept their working conditions/pay as "US workers not being compliant" is a meaningless use of the word compliant in this context.
- avs733 5y agoI'm talking about the article, I have little to no insight on TSMC beyond this article which says things I find to be highly suspect. there is an underlying agreement...just because it isn't directly stated doesn't make them not real. Social contracts arise from cultural norms and very much are a thing.
