Negro Employment in the Maritime Industries
The AFL-CIO Blue Cross-Blue Shield Campaign
In 1985, AFL-CIO leaders and the officers of eight AFL-CIO unions announced their intention of organizing the employees of Blue Cross/Blue Shield (BC/BS).

Five years la…

This paper examines the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization (PATCO) strike of 1981 and assesses its impact on labor relations in the federal sector. The author finds the root causes of the stoppage in the history of PATCO's relations with the Federal Aviation Administration, the equivocal manner in which the federal government had dealt with previous PATCO strikes, and the ineptness of PATCO's leaders. He argues that PATCO's basic g…

Fact-Finding in Labor Disputes
Fact-finding, as one of the traditional tools of government to adjust labor disputes, is evaluated in this study on the basis of a survey and analysis of the experience of the states. It is concluded that the device, if sparingly employed, may be useful to its purpose but can easily become a hindrance to effective collective bargaining if invoked indiscriminately and with too much frequency.
