How can trade unions make sense of social partnership? What are the implications of partnership for union renewal? This book takes an international perspective to explore these issues based on an ongoing dialogue between researchers and union practitioners in eight countries. The book develops the metaphors 'boxing' and 'dancing' to denote contrasting strategic choices to the employment relationship, yet argues that neither approach alone can offer an exclusive trajectory for union development. The authors conclude by identifying lessons for union renewal.MIRELLA BAGLIONI Professor of Industrial Relations, University of Parma, Italy STEVEN DEUTSCH Professor Emeritus, Labor Education and Research Center, University of Oregon, USA ERLING FORSMAN Chief Editor, TCO-tidningen, Sweden KARL KOCH Emeritus Professor of Modern Languages, London South Bank University, UK MARTIN KUHLMANN University of Gottingen, Sweden ALDO MARCHETTI Senior Researcher, Pietro Seveso Foundation, Italy TOMMY NILSSON Associate Professor in Sociology, Stockholm University, Sweden KEVIN O'KELLY University of Limerick, Ireland WIM SPRENGER Independent Researcher, The Netherlands AURORA TRIF PhD Student, London South Bank University, UK MAARTEN VAN KLAVEREN STZ Consultancy & Research, Eindhoven, The Netherlands
