Abstract

The relatively low level of faculty bargaining on American campuses stands in sharp contrast to developments in other democratic, industrial nations. This article examines the experience in two countries, Canada and Israel, where university bargaining has been in existence for a long period and is widespread. Based on a survey questionnaire, faculty attitudes in the tow countries are compared and certain conclusions are drawn relative to developments in the United States, focusing on four-year public institutions.
