Abstract: The Influence of corporate acquisitions on union membership may differ when the acquiring firm if foreign instead of domestic. This study tests this hypothesis by estimating union status equation that includes measures of foreign and domestic acquisition activity. The findings suggest that the tendency of foreign owners to acquire firms in less capital intensive industries partly explain the higher probability of union membership in industries experiencing foreign acquisition activity.
