Raw Power: Plant-Closing Threats and the Threat to Union Organizing

Author
Bronfenbrenner , Kate
Abstract
Today, in the post-NAFTA climate of expanding trade agreements and skyrocketing levels of corporate migration, a majority of employers continue to make plant-closing threats during organizing campaigns. A recent study found that plant-closing threats continue to be among the most powerful anti-union strategies, and threats are even more pervasive than they were in 1993-95.
