Working In These Times Contributing Writer Josh Eidelson recently appeared on Bloggingheads.tv with Columbia University Assistant Professor Dorian Warren to—as Bloggingheads described it—”discuss a recent attempt to silence union picketers that was defeated with help from the Tea Party, and how public-sector unions remain a ripe target for Republicans. How does labor law affect union strength? Can labor organizers take lessons from the 1930s? Finally, Dorian and Josh explore the role of unions in articulating a vision of workplace democracy.”
