Have the unions had their day? Or do initiatives like ‘pop-up’ unions, UNITE’s community branches and the more militant profile of RMT show the way? How do we organise at a time when so many people have precarious, short term, minimum wage jobs? Sheila Cohen has written books on trade union history; Alan Tuckman writes about worker representation in industry; Tom Unterrainer is an activist in NUT/Nottingham Trades Union Council.
