Abstract
The paper specifies an alternative model of union growth which builds on the strengths of the popular A/P andB/E models and incorporates several hypotheses relating aggregate union membership growth to changes in key business cycle variables, the legislative framework, and the inter-industry and male-female composition of the labour force.
