Unions in a Globalized Environment

How can American unions survive in our increasingly globalized business environment? This book suggest that US unions can look elsewhere to expand their role, by creating ties with workers and unions in other countries and by including immigrant workers - who are growing - in their ranks.

How can American unions survive in our increasingly globalized business environment? With the trend toward multinational corporations, free trade pacts, and dismantling import barriers, organized labor has been steadily losing ground in the United States. This book argues that to reverse this trend, U.S. unions must create ties with workers and unions in other countries, and include the ever-increasing number of immigrant workers in their ranks. And it calls for a shift toward "social movement unionism, " which would change unions'' orientation from exclusively market-focused and more toward social issues and rights.
