This book compares sources of worker and employer power in Germany,
South Africa, and the United States in order to identify the
sources of comparative U.S. decline in union power and to more
precisely analyze the nature of labor-movement power. It finds that
this power is not confined to allied parties, union confederations,
or strikes, but rather consists of the capacity to autonomously
translate power from one context to the next. By combining their
product, labor market, and labor law advantages through their
dominant employers' associations, leading firms are able to impose
constraints on labor's free collective bargaining regionally and
nationally, defeating employer interests that are more amenable to
labor in the process. Through an examination of these patterns of
interest organization, the book shows, however, that initial
employer advantages prove to be contingent and unstable and that
employers are forced to cede to more far-reaching demands of
increasingly organized workers.
