| Abstract: | The extraordinary growth in foreign direct investment coupled with the widespread declination of union penetration has increasingly allowed multinationals to pit unions across borders as competitors for investment and jobs. This article identifies the essential conditions and incentives for cooperation among unions across borders for the purpose of collective bargaining with multinationals and addresses strategic-level implications for transnational interunion partnerships based on a theoretical analysis of the exercise of power in a prisoner's dilemma game. |
