Abstract

When managers think of union organizing, what first comes to mind is often the industrial northeast, Pennsylvania steel mills of yesteryear, or ports along the California coast. Southern states, particularly those that have right‐to‐work laws that make union organization less financially beneficial to unions, usually don't come to mind. In addition to right‐to‐work laws, Southern states are known for a general culture of hostility to unions. The Mason‐Dixon Line of union organizing has not, however, completely dissuaded unions from taking their shots at organizing Southern workers. The most recent case in point? The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers keeps on trying to organize workers at Boeing's South Carolina plant.
