This article examines the transformations of unionism at the international and transnational levels over the last three decades. In the context of the growing influence of multinational firms on the world economy, this period is characterized by the emergence of new forms of international and transnational union action in order to ensure the protection of worker rights within these firms. Our analysis focuses on the evolution of structures and strategies of international union organizations, and on transnational union cooperation in the contexts of European Union and NAFTA. | ||
