Usage Note

Concertazione is a key term in Italian industrial relations and politics, referring to the process of negotiation and consensus-building between government, employers, and trade unions. It is closely associated with Italian corporatist labor policy and has no perfect single-word English equivalent; 'social partnership' or 'concertation' are the standard translations. Plural: concertazioni.

Examples

"La riforma è stata approvata dopo una lunga concertazione."

Natural Translation

The reform was approved after lengthy concertation.
