US Labor in Trouble and Transition tells the story of union decline in
America and of the split in the labor movement it led to, following the
dismal tale of union mergers and management partnerships that
accompanied the retreat from militancy since the 1980s. Looking to the
future, Moody shows how the rise of immigrant labor and its efforts at
self-organization can re-energize the unions from below. US Labor in
Trouble and Transition is a major intervention in the ongoing debate
within the US labor movement.
