While on the subject of US unions, American Rights at Work have just released a new study on elections for union representation, Free and Fair? How Labor Law Fails US Democratic Election Standards. Written by University of Oregon Professor Gordon Lafer, it:
offers a detailed analysis of how fundamental principles governing American elections are systematically denied to those seeking union representation at work under the current process outlined in U.S. labor law and administered by the National Labor Relations Board.
Hardly non-partisan, but it does spotlight key imbalances in the US union recognition system.
