Description:

Social partnership represents a challenge for trade unionism, offering as it does a new context for industrial relations. This title explores the implications for trades unions across the globe and seeks to identify lessons for union renewal.

Synopsis:

How can trade unions make sense of social partnership? What are the implications of partnership for union renewal? This book takes an international perspective to explore these issues based on an ongoing dialogue between researchers and union practitioners in eight countries. The book develops the metaphors 'boxing' and 'dancing' to denote contrasting strategic choices to the employment relationship, yet argues that neither approach alone can offer an exclusive trajectory for union development. The authors conclude by identifying lessons for union renewal.
