- Description
- Describes the potential for trade unions to defend the socioeconomic rights of women in a global context. Looking at labor policies and interviews with people in unions and nongovernmental organizations, the essays explore the problems faced by women workers across the world and the progress that unions in various countries have made in responding to those problems. Some concerns addressed are: the masculine culture of many unions and the challenges of female leadership within them, laissez-faire governance, and the limited success of organizations working on these issues globally.
