Abstract:This paper conceptualizes how organized labour in newly industrialized countries both responds to and shapes the presence of foreign multinationals. Four images of multinationals -- as "villains", "necessary evils", "arm's length collaborators", and "partners" are documented and compared using evidence drawn from three countries during the 1950-1999 period. Organized labor flatly opposed foreign multinationals early on, under authoritarian regimes, in all three countries -- Argentina, South Korea, and Spain -- but that stance shifted over time in divergent rather than convergent ways.
