330 .. $a "Whither the union movement? is a question of old enough relevance in the U.S. to
now seem almost anachronistic. Although unions are by no means entirely gone or lacking
in political power, they and their potency are certainly diminished. With growing
concerns about the direction of national politics, increasing income and power inequities,
and signs of a receding middle class and increasing social division into haves and
have nots, one can hear murmurs of union revival, but polls continue to show that
many Americans distrust unions or consider them irrelevant to a modern service economy.
Christian Wright digests what happened to one important American union, the United
Mine Workers of America, over a fifty-year period, with particular focus on the coal
miners of Carbon and Emery counties in Utah. Derived from his much more limited in
scope but award-winning master's thesis at Northern Arizona University, this book
manuscript places that story in a broader context of changes in the union movement
and the nation. It draws on a variety of primary sources, including original research
in the UMWA archives at Penn State and multiple oral history collections"--Provided
