The UAW's Southern Gamble is the first in-depth assessment of the
United Auto Workers' efforts to organize foreign vehicle plants
(Daimler-Chrysler, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, and Volkswagen) in the
American South since 1989, an era when union membership declined
precipitously. Stephen J. Silvia chronicles transnational union
cooperation between the UAW and its counterparts in Brazil, France,
Germany and Japan, as well as documenting the development of
employer strategies that have proven increasingly effective at
thwarting unionization. Silvia shows that when organizing, unions
must now fight on three fronts: at the worksite; in the corporate
boardroom; and in the political realm. The UAW's Southern Gamble
makes clear that the UAW's failed campaigns in the South can teach
hard-won lessons about challenging the structural and legal
roadblocks to union participation and effectively organizing
workers within and beyond the auto industry.
