Longshore Labour and Radicalism
The Southern Key
The South is today, as it always has been, the key to understanding American society, its politics, its constitutional anomalies and government structure, its culture, its social relations, its music and literature, its media focus, its blind spots, and virtually everything else. 'The Southern Key' argues that much of what is important in American politics and society today was largely shaped by the successes and failures of the labor movements o…
The Myth of Section 7(a)
In this article, the authors look at the supposed causal role of progressive labor legislation on union organizing. As an extension of the Wagner Act debates of the late 1980s and early 1990s, the authors argue—contrary to the accepted wisdom of virtually all established scholarship—that “progressive” labor legislation is not generally the impetus for worker organization, a necessary prerequisite without which mass unionization would be impossibl…
The Changing Landscape of US Unions in Historical and Theoretical Perspective
In certain states, most notably Wisconsin and Ohio, attempts have been made to eliminate public sector collective bargaining. Although the all-out attack on public sector unions is relatively new, it is best seen in the context of long-term trends. These include the long-standing assault on private sector unions; the ongoing conservative political critique of the public sector; and neoliberal policies that contract government services, deregulate…
The Enduring Legacy of David Greenstone'sLabor in American Politics
Forging a Common Bond
The author studies one of the longest labour disputes in American history, a lockout involving the Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers' International Union and BASF, a German-based chemical manufacturer. Minchin examines the range of tactics employed by the union
Race and Labor Organization in the United States
In the United States of America, the fate of labor—its ability to win lasting gains, its success in sustaining solid organizations, its episodic periods of class consciousness, as well as its brief flirtations with broader class and independent political organizational forms—has always been closely tied to the issue of race. This is not only true today, but has been the case from the earliest colonial beginnings.This article can also be found at …

Explaining New Deal Labor Policy
The National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) of 1935 represented a turning point in modern labor relations policy in the United States. In the December 1989 issue of thisReview, Michael Goldfield examined the effects of worker insurgency and radical organization on the enactment of the new labor law and rejected theories that emphasized the autonomy of the state from societal forces. In thisControversy, Theda Skocpol and Kenneth Finegold argue that th…
Public Sector Union Growth and Public Policy
Bitter Choices
Power, Production, and the Unprotected Worker
Worker Insurgency, Radical Organization, and New Deal Labor Legislation
Debates over the reasons for the passage of class legislation during the New Deal era have been of continuing interest to social scientists. Of special importance has been the problem of explaining the passage of the 1935 National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), often considered the most significant and radical bill of the period. In this article, I examine the influence of worker insurgency and radical organization on the passage and final form of t…

The decline of organized labor in the United States
Labor in American Politics--Its Current Weakness
Trade unions play an important role in United States politics. Much of their influence is based on the resources they are able to mobilize, both financially and numerically through campaign workers and votes; ultimately this influence is rooted in their membership size. Thus, their declining numerical strength over recent years has been a point of interest for many investigators. Research presented here casts doubt on several of the most commonly…
