Abstract
This year one academic union successfully registered with the Australian Conciliation and Arbitration Commission ami two more could shortly follow. This paper reviews union development over the past 3 0 years and argues that the perceived need to register as a federal union is the inevitable outcome of external influences on higher education. Institutional and union leaders are more likely to succeed in arresting the decline in higher education by cooperative efforts to influence governments than by the existing pattern of inter‐sectoral and/or employer/employee rivalry.
