Chapter 7 in Tackling Inequality, 1999, pp 105-125 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This paper is concerned with two questions. First, how do unions affect relative wages in Britain? Second, how has the effect varied over time, and what, if anything, does this tell us about the role of unions in wage inflation?.
