Unions in Transition: Entering the Second Century

Unions in Transition: Entering the Second Century

The decline of the American labor movement has become a subject of some significance. This collection documents and analyzes labor's deterioration, particularly such issues as why union density is relatively low in the U.S., why unions lose certification elections at a high ratio, whether labor can reverse the current trends, and what labor's future role will be in the American economic and social system.
