Individual Autonomy And Collective Empowerment In Labor Law: Union Membership Resignations And Strikebreaking In The New Economy, David Abraham

Articles

In this Article, Doctor Abraham studies the tensions between individual rights and theories of collective action in the context of union membership resignations and strikebreaking.
