In this book, Adam Dean studies the conditions under which labor and capital collaborate in support of the same trade policies. Dean argues that capital-labor agreement on trade policy depends on the presence of 'profit-sharing institutions'. He tests this theory through case studies from the United States, Britain, and Argentina in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries; they offer a revisionist history placing class conflict at the center of the political economy of trade. Analysis of data from more than one hundred countries from 1986 to 2002 demonstrates that the field's conventional wisdom systematically exaggerates the benefits that workers receive from trade policy reforms. From Conflict to Coalition boldly explains why labor is neither an automatic beneficiary nor an automatic ally of capital when it comes to trade policy and distributional conflict. 410 0$aPolitical economy of institutions and decisions. 606 $aLabor unions 606 $aCommercial policy 606 $aProfit-sharing 606 $aCollective bargaining 606 $aIndustrial relations 615 0$aLabor unions. 615 0$aCommercial policy. 615 0$aProfit-sharing. 615 0$aCollective bargaining. 615 0$aIndustrial relations. 676 $a331.2/1647 700 $aDean$b Adam$f1984-$01075014 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136607803321 996 $aFrom conflict to coalition$92583101 997 $aUNINA
