While some might think this indicates that workers are not interested in unionizing, available polling data suggests that far more workers want unions than currently have them. The problem, as Assistant Professor Barry Eidlin argues in the <i>Washington Post</i>, is the profoundly broken and undemocratic union election system that currently exists.</p> Fri, 23 Apr 2021 18:17:45 +0000 ximena.ramirezvillanueva@mail.mcgill.ca 2266 at /sociology
