Bascia, Nina
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v43 n2-3 p69-85 Sum-Fall 1997
Analyses of the union-related work of 35 teachers in 10 U.S. and Canadian school districts reveal how teachers' practical and ideological concerns encourage assumption of organizational and political roles, and how this work provides access to information, resources, and influence.
