On this week’s episode of Economic Update, Professor Wolff devotes this week's episode to Labor Unions and Political parties. We explain why US & Western capitalism today provoke labor and unions into more and more social and political action. The latest examples are the recent Canadian Postal Workers strike and the Barnes and Noble bookstore workers rally in New York City. The Professor discusses the history of the standard practice of employers filing complaints with the National Labor Relations Board to dispute the results of elections that form unions.

Finally a major discussion on politics and the intersection of labor. What will be unions' relationship to political parties? Will we see general strikes and mass popular mobilizations? Only time will tell.
