The author uses multiple methodologies, including cross-sectional analysis and case studies, to demonstrate the extent that workers in regulated industries not only benefit from higher wages than non-union workers in the same industry, but also often capture a share of the profits the regulation generates. In this book, the author examines wage responses to deregulation in the trucking industry, where union workers had been able to negotiate particularly lucrative wage contracts. The authorâs analysis suggests that when industry deregulation was implemented in the late 1970s and early 1980s, there were substantial declines in union premia over nonunion wages. The author concludes that union workers may have captured as much as 60 to 70 percent of total industry rentsâ"a finding that strongly supports labor rent-sharing hypotheses and may have implications for collective bargaining and regulatory policy in numerous other industries.
