I need help creating a thesis and an outline on Major Internal and External Political Challenges Faced by Unions. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. The first challenge that has struck the movement worldwide is capital globalization. Today, governments have lost power for companies. This has been as a result of the increased advancements in technology, as a result, capital now has the ability to internationalize itself while avoiding the forces of trade union movements and the political forces at the nation-state level. This ultimately means that capital has overcome political and social compromises and is out for authoritarian hegemony (Fink, Leon, and Brian,19)This has been clearly evident since national isolationism is today being largely felt and that trade unions that have already been weakened are today faced by the economic crisis that has led to mass unemployment, inequalities between countries and also differences in the trade union culture (Vasco 2010) Hit by these harsh economic times, unions such as 1199 SIEU that boast the largest local members of a single union face hard times in trying to negotiate good terms for their members.
Another major challenge that faces the trade union movement is the effect of political leadership on its operations. The movement is faced with a lot of confusion on who best to heed to their demands when in power. For instance, it backed Bill Clinton only for his administration to back the NAFTA Trade Agreement that the labor unions had opposed that had been endorsed by corporate America while the reforms that had been promised in his bid to get elected collapsed in a democrat-filled congress (Fink, Leon, and Brian,8)This was a major throwback into the movement considering that backing a specific candidate denies the right of members to vote. .
