The world of work has changed and so have trade unions with mergers, rebrandings and new unions being formed. The question is, how positioned are the unions to organize the unorganized?
With more than three quarters of UK workers unrepresented and the growth of precarious employment and the gig economy this topical new book by Bob Smale reports up-to-date research on union identities and what he terms 'niche unionism', while raising critical questions for the future.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Critical discussion of contemporary British trade unions, informed by cutting edge research into understanding the complexity of union identities and the role of niche unionism. Whilst media and politicians often refer to 'the unions' as if they were homogeneous, even the most rudimentary exploration of union names reveals that unions actually project extremely diverse identities. It develops a new approach to understanding unions based on their projected identities through the application of a new multi-dimensional framework of analysis. The framework allows individual unions to be plotted against the sources of union identity derived from systematic observation of unions' observable characteristics. The world of work has changed and so have trade unions, with mergers, rebrandings and new unions being formed, but the question is, how fitted are the unions to organize the unorganized? This engaging new book by Bob Smale explores the complex identities projected by contemporary trade unions and asks critical question for the future.
