Sumario: | "In the last two decades of the twentieth century there was a massive decline in union membership. At the same time the political power, roles and influence of trade unions in most industrialized societies declined significantly. Nowhere was this decline more evident than in predominantly English-speaking countries." "Against this background, this book examines the current roles and prospects of trade unions in six countries: Australia, Britain, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand and the USA. In particular it examines how unions have responded to the myriad problems confronting them and assesses how successful their responses have been."--Jacket |
