Description

Comparative Union Democracy offers a major empirical study of labor organization and opposition. This volume examines thirty-one British and fifty-one American national trade unions to provide the foundation for a new, organizationally oriented theory of union democracy. Through in-depth studies of the political processes within the British Mineworkers' Union and the Engineers' Union, the text illustrates how formal organization can act as a check against oligarchy. In countries with democratic norms, the book demonstrates how organizational structures stimulate competition among full-time officers seeking to advance through the union hierarchy. This work is essential for students and professionals interested in the structural dynamics of labor movements. By analyzing a large sample of international unions, it provides a deep look at how internal competition and organizational design influence democratic outcomes within labor organizations.
