Workplace unionism under decentralised bargaining in France: a case study of the CGT in the car industry
研究了法国分散化谈判下传统激进工会CGT在标致雪铁龙和雷诺的持续激进反对模式,并分析了企业谈判结构、工会间改革合作和选举因素如何强化其行动。
Abstract Considering recent theoretical accounts on the trajectory of French unionism under localised bargaining, this article examines potential consequences for the country's traditionally largest radical union, Confédération Générale du Travail (CGT). Deploying a case study of CGT at PSA Peugeot Citroёn and Renault in the years since the 2008 automotive crisis, the article observes a persistent pattern of militant opposition within company and plant union sections. Company bargaining structure, interunion reformist collaboration and electoral considerations are identified as workplace mechanisms reinforcing CGT actions at this level.
