Union Booms and Busts: The Ongoing Fight Over the U.S. Labor Movement

Ultimately, we aim to reveal the lessons that these struggles may offer to today’s labor movement. 

We invite you to make use of our publicly available data repository for your own research. The data that we collected includes industry-level information on union membership and density, strikes, elections, unfair labor practices, employment size, race, gender, and occupation of workers, and more.
