Contemporary Labor Issues Bibliography

Bass, George Nelson III. 2012. “Organized Labor and US Foreign Policy: The Solidarity Center in Historical Context.” Department of Political Science, Florida International University. Available free online. (Go to this page and then click on “download.”) This examines the Solidarity Center’s work, in line with traditional AFL-CIO foreign policy practices, and argues well that AFL-CIO foreign policy practices have continued under the Solidarity Center.

Smith, Jordan Michael. 2013. “The US Democracy Project.” The National Interest, May 1. This is a critical article in a conservative journal that talks about US efforts to promote “democracy” around the world–in reality, elite, top-down, CONSTRAINED, polyarchal democracy–that is worth a read.

For more details on the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), see my 2010 book, “AFL-CIO’s Secret War Against Developing Country Workers: Solidarity or Sabotage?” (Lanham, MD: Lexington Books: 96-105.)  The section on NED in my book was originally published in 2005 as “An Unholy Alliance” and remains pertinent today.

Note that I do not generally refer to the Industrial Relations literature—my focus is activism from a rank and file empowerment perspective—and I do not focus on labor law: these are areas that others know much more about and focus on more intently. Also, while I do include a few historical sources, in general it is only because I think there is something specific, we can learn from the past that might be worth considering today.

NEW ADDITION: In light of the split in the AFL-CIO at and around the Chicago Convention in July 2005, I have added a number of new entries that discuss this, either in anticipation or as part of an analysis of ramifications

NEW BOOK: Building Global Labor Solidarity in a Time of Accelerating Globalization, ed. by Kim Scipes (2016). Published by Haymarket Books in Chicago, and available at www.haymarketbooks.org/pb/Building-Global-Labor-Solidarity-in-a-Time-of-Accelerating-Globalization. This is a book unlike any other to date, and I argue that there is a lot to be learned from it. It includes chapters by (in alphabetical order) David Bacon, Bruno Dobrusin, Jenny Jungehuelsing, Katherine Nastovski, Timothy Ryan, Kim Scipes and Michael Zweig.
