Dear friends and colleagues:

I am researching the political response of trade unions, in Canada and abroad, 
to the expansion of precarity and the low wage labour market. I'm particularly 
interested in active forms of resistance through strikes but also the 
contribution of unions to the ideological/policy debate. In addition, in some 
countries, Spain in particular, a new political formation came about as a 
result of this resistance by workers.

Any literature, academic or think tank, web sites worth visiting?
