  • The Case of Mexico
    CROSS-BOARDER TRADE WITH MEXICO AND THE PROSPECT FOR WORKER SOLIDARITY: THE CASE OF MEXICO Steve Babson Abstract While auto labor in North America remains fragmented and local, the auto com- panies have been reorganizing on a continental basis, building a modern, export- oriented production base in Mexico. This paper addresses the question of whether and how the diverse labor movements of Mexico, the U.S. and Canada can over- come the competitive dynamic of free trade and establish a regional union move- ment based on cross-border solidarity. A review of the salient events of the last 30 years indicates that, despite the widespread assumption that Mexican autoworkers must be bene ting from globalization to the same degree that U.S. and Canadian workers are losing, the actual outcomes are mixed on both sides of the border. Jobs are up in most years, but real wages are stagnant or falling, bargaining lever- age is weakened, and de-unionization is growing across the continent. At the same time, the North American integration of production has established a common “occupational idiom” (and accompanying grievances) centered on lean production, outsourcing, and competitive “whipsawing” of plants making the same product. On this basis alone, proponents of cross-border solidarity can nd potential allies from Puebla to Oshawa. Mobilizing that potential is diYcult, however, when there are so few links between the labor movements of North America. Historical divisions rooted in the Mexican revolution and the Cold War are now diminished, but bar- riers of language and culture remain. A further barrier is the heightened job inse- curity felt in many corners of the auto industry.

"LABOR'S DIVIDED RANKS": PRIVILEGE AND THE UNITED FRONT IDEOLOGY Marion Craint & Ken Mathenytt INTRODUCTION The American workforce, once a relatively homogenous group by race, ethnicity, and gender, has grown increasingly diverse.' As the workforce has diversified, workplace disputes, once framed in terms of class conflict and considered the province of labor unions, have been eclipsed by identity-based claims raising issues relating to race, ethnic- ity, gender, sexual orientation, or disability. Antidiscrimination laws reify and reinforce gender, ethnic, race, sexual orientation, and disa- bility consciousness in workers, and academics, civil rights lawyers, and progressive social change movements have enthusiastically taken up these causes. 2 Meanwhile, the labor movement has fallen into public disfavor, as indicated by the corresponding drop in union density.3 Increasingly, the lines of identity politics divide the workforce more than issues of class unite it.

Using archives official and unofficial - oral histories and archived document collections, self-published memoirs and legal documents, personal papers and the newspapers of the radical press – it portrays a city in flux. It was in the 1970s that the urban crisis in the cities of the United States crested. Detroit, as had been the case throughout the twentieth century, was at the forefront of these changes. This dissertation demonstrates the local social, political, economic and legislative circumstances that contributed to the dramatic increase in prison populations since the 1970s. In the streets, unemployed African American youth organized themselves to counteract the contracted social distribution allocated to them under rapidly changing economic circumstances.
