Abstract:
This paper reports on aspects of the decision-making process within the management committees of six unions. The following issues are explored: the extent to which a democratic climate prevails within the meetings; the differences and similarities in the experience of large and small unions; and the differences and similarities in the experience of white and blue collar unions.
