| Tiivistelmä: | A preliminary investigation of union impact on investment in intangible capital is offered. Evidence on the raw correlation between union membership density and R&D intensity is reported. This suggests that higher union density is associated with increased innovative activity among an important subset of British industry. A simple cross-country test is offered in which German R&D outlays serve as the benchmark or comparator. No support is adduced for the notion that unions cause higher R&D. |
