SUMMARY:Democracy and Insurgency in Health Care Unionism
DESCRIPTION:John Borsos\, Vice President\, National Union of Health Care Workers\, is our guest at the next meeting of the Colloquium on Work\, Labor\, and Political Economy. Just last week one of the largest union election contests in modern U.S. history culminated in a large Service Employees International Union victory at the Kaiser hospital chain. Nearly 30\,000 workers voted\, which makes the subject chosen by our speaker\, “Democracy and Insurgency in Health Care Unionism\,” of particular interest. Borsos\, who holds a Ph.D. in labor history from Indiana University\, has been a union activist for nearly two decades. He was director of the Hospital Division of SEIU-United Healthcare Workers West and president of the Sacramento Labor Council from 2001 to 2009.\nUse the link below to read a debate over the future of the labor movement between Borsos\, the SEIU’s Stephen Lerner\, and other labor experts and activists. \nThe Colloquium meets on Friday\, October 15 at 1 p.m. in 4041 Humanities and Social Science Building. A light lunch will be served. \njmj 10/11/2010
