| Summary: | "This is a broad assessment of the institutional health of the 28 major national unions in the United States.

The focus on this era is because it contains the 1980s-a time when the unions were assailed from several positions. The fundamental idea in this work is that the resources of the union affect their capacities to undertake a variety of activities, and that the unions have a great deal of institutional strength which is likely to ensure their existence in the future." |
