Solidarity Divided.



Solidarity Divided: The Crisis in Organized Labor and A New Path
toward Social Justice
.
Bill Fletcher, Jr. and Fernando Gapasin. University of California Press. 2008.
"This is an extraordinarily important and provocative reflection on the limitations of self-reform and reinvention within the American labor movement. The authors provide readers with a unique first-hand view of internal debates, personalities, and decision-making processes but also use their intimate knowledge of union culture and carefully narrated case studies to transcend mere stone-throwing. This book is unlikely to be matched by any other journalistic account or memoir.... A landmark in all debates about 'what next' for labor."—Mike Davis, author of Prisoners of the American Dream
