Airline Labor Relations in the Global Era

Book excerpt: Emerging from a 1993 conference on airline labor relations convened by the National Mediation Board, this volume provides a comprehensive discussion of the problems facing the airline industry, the significance of globalization, the impact of deregulation and labor relations, and possible solutions. "The lasting contribution of this volume may be its use to historians as they try to understand what the players were thinking in the early 1990s, as the industry embarked on another era of transformation."
