The American Professoriate and the Movement Toward Unionization

Lewis, Lionel S.; Ryan, Michael N.

Higher Education, 6, 2, 139-64, May 77

The movement away from professionalization and toward unionization is examined. It is noted that the traditional stance taken by the leadership of the American Association of University Professors seems to ignore the obstacles (i.e., the distribution of power in organization) in the path of attaining full professional status.
