But far from polarizing workers, NAFTA unexpectedly helped stimulate labor transnationalism among key North American unions and erode union policies and discourses rooted in racism. The emergence of labor transnationalism in North America presents compelling political and sociological and puzzles: How did NAFTA, the concrete manifestation of globalization processes in North America, help deepen labor solidarity on the continent? And why did some unions more readily engage in transnational collaboration and embrace internationalism than others? In addition to making the provocative argument that global governance institutions can play a pivotal role in the development of transnational social movements, this book suggests that globalization need not undermine labor movements: collectively, unions can help shape how the rules governing the global economy are made"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000428569 61010 $$aNorth American Free Trade Agreement$$d(1992 December 17) 000428569 650_0 $$aLabor unions$$zNorth America. 000428569 650_0 $$aSocial movements$$zNorth America. 000428569 650_0 $$aTransnationalism. 000428569 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000428569 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKay, Tamara, 1971-$$tNAFTA and the politics of labor transnationalism.$$dNew York : Cambridge University Press, 2011$$z9780521762878$$z9780521132954$$w(DLC) 2010011778$$w(OCoLC)569552271 000428569 8520_ $$bacq 000428569 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000428569 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=691882$$zOnline Access 000428569 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:428569$$pGLOBAL_SET 000428569 980__ $$aEBOOK 000428569 980__ $$aBIB 000428569 982__ $$aEbook 000428569 983__ $$aOnline
