TLDR
In this article, the authors study the extent to which interunion raiding has occurred and its variety and sources and conclude that, while the no-raiding agreement is an important step toward a unified labor movement, its ultimate success may depend on the extent that some unions are willing to forego the organizational gains from raiding.Abstract:
