A Union by Any Other Name.

Moe, Terry M.

Education Next, v1 n3 p40-45 Fall 2001

Describes how teacher unions influence public-school policies through collective bargaining; local, state and national politics; and opposition to certain school-reform initiatives such as school choice. States that unions pursue policies that benefit teachers rather than students. Suggests that as school choice spreads, power of teacher unions will wane. (PKP)
