How can unions move from a defensive strategy to one of class
transformation? Mulder demonstrates how the current union
strategies of class blindness lead to weak and often unintended
results. Unions, she argues, do not use their collective power for
class transformation and union commentators/critics do not theorize
about unions as possible agents for such class transformations.
Using the case study of the Broadway musicians' union, Mulder shows
how unions can facilitate a class transformation that increases
workers' control over their working conditions and enables them to
make the changes needed to improve their lives. This innovative and
needed study will be of interest to labor economists, scholars of
class and labor, and those interested in the plight of unions and
the potential they still hold for social and economic
transformations.
