Abstract
Confederal international trade unionism has, in recent years, undertaken an in-depth reorganization of its structures and a review of its action strategies. Major changes over the last few years, led in particular by the implementation of strategies aimed at reinforcing trade union unity and the negotiating process at the global level, have affected the structuring and operating mode of the main international union organizations. This contribution is divided into two parts and examines some aspects of this transformation. First, we will describe briefly the role of confederal international trade unionism and its recent evolution in light of discussions which took place during the Second World Congress of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) held in Vancouver from June 21-25, 2010. We will then discuss some of the main challenges that the ITUC will have to overcome if it is to play an important role in the future in regulating the global economy.
