A Typology of Rank-And-File Union Members
From interviews with samples of members in three local unions, seven types of rank-and-file members appear, ranging from the ideological to the unwilling. Many circumstances, including family background, experiences within the union, type of bargaining relationship, and friendship patterns, influence the worker's view of unionism. The tendency for union leaders to be chosen from among one or the other of two types, comprising a very small proport…

The Union Organizer and His Tactics: A Case Study
Typically, the professional union organizer probes for dissatisfaction and seeks to transform individual unrest into a collective phenomenon. He has set of rules by which to operate but must emphasize that aspect of unionism that will be attractive to the workers he is trying to convince. To workers with little or no prior union experience the union is an abstraction, and their judgment may turn on their estimate of the personality of the organiz…

The Slowdown as a Union Tactic
Labor Policy of the Communist Party during World War II
It has been repeatedly asserted that the Communist Party of the United States seeks to capture organized labor for the purpose of using the unions to advance the policies of the Kremlin.

Democracy in Labor Unions
Political Consciousness in a Local Union
Aside from its obvious function as an instrument of large-scale collective bargaining, the industrial union represents a relatively new and potentially powerful unit of social and political organization, In this article, the authors examine the role and influence of a typical industrial local in a mid-Western city. They conclude that while the local is effective in the area of collective bargaining, both its leaders and membership have as yet not…
Leadership in a Local Union
The circumstances of joining a union become relatively unimportant where the union's method of operation, the status it achieves, or the pressure of events leads people to become active in its affairs. All the leaders of a union local identified themselves with the union and believed it had brought about substantial gains. Such identification indicates that the union has become a way of life, serving the needs of its members apart from, and in ad…
