Joe Burns is an experienced labor negotiator who has worked in the airline industry among many others. This book presents his thesis that the return of the production-stopping strike, the kind which can inflict economic harm upon an employer, is the best hope for the future of the labor movement.
The book will appeal to a broad base within the union movement as it offers a unique solution to today's problems.
Book is written in a non-academic style accessible to the union members and union activists as well as general readers.
Excerpt has already appeared in New Labor Forum in Spring 2010 introducing ideas to pool of union activists; favorable interest received.
