From the Back Cover

In his visionary analysis, Charles Heckscher argues for "associational unionism", a model outside the tradition of American labor law. Rejecting the usual boundary between workers and management, Heckscher defines a genuinely new system of representation that encourages multilateral negotiation involving management, different groups of employees, and other interested parties such as consumers or environmentalists.
