Puzzling choices in hard times: Union ideologies of social concertation in the Great Recession
研究了2008年大衰退后爱尔兰和葡萄牙的工会如何基于意识形态决定是否与政府进行让步性谈判，补充了基于利益的策略解释。
Abstract Using the cases of Ireland and Portugal during the post‐2008 Great Recession, we argue that unions' ideological formations around social concertation are central in aiding them to navigate their options about whether to engage in concessionary bargaining with government under crisis conditions. Building on Hyman's triangle of union identity, we show how an ideational perspective can complement interest‐based accounts of unions' strategies to explain their engagement with policymakers or their opposition in the macro‐management of the economy.
