Collective bargaining is still the main vehicle for labour worldwide to negotiate
wages, benefits, retirement policies, training and other terms of working with management
in both the public and private sectors. Labour economists have long been active in
modelling the relations between collective bargaining agreements, labour markets,
and social welfare conditions. This book presents a new theoretical model of unions
which offers a unified treatment of the centralization of bargaining, the credibility
of labour contracts, the unionization of labour markets and the relative bargaining
power of the union. Part I of the book develops the microfoundations of bargaining
and examines collective bargaining interacting with public policy, investment and
growth, and international trade and specialization. In conclusion Professor Palokangas
challenges the commonly held view that collective bargaining has a negative impact
on economics welfare, and argues that with the existence of market failure, collective
bargaining can be welfare enhancing.
