Abstract

Abstract This article explores the role of interunion conflict in the rise and evolution of faculty unionism in Canada. We argue that competition and tension between the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) in the early 1970s played a key role in driving professors’ support for the certification of independent faculty associations. Moreover, we contend that a parochial, sectionalist, and craft-like brand of faculty unionism remained dominant in Canada until the 2000s, when external forces and the rise of the neoliberal university convinced CAUT’s leadership to broaden the tent in terms of membership and embrace an enlarged notion of solidarity in an effort to better defend terms and conditions of work for university teachers.

工会间冲突与加拿大教师工会主义的演变

摘要本文探讨了工会间冲突在加拿大教师工会主义兴起和演变中的作用。我们认为，20世纪70年代初，加拿大大学教师协会（CAUT）和加拿大公共雇员联盟（CUPE）之间的竞争和紧张关系在推动教授支持独立教师协会认证方面发挥了关键作用。此外，我们认为，直到21世纪初，狭隘、分区主义和工艺风格的教师工会主义在加拿大一直占主导地位，当外部力量和新自由主义大学的兴起说服了中国农业大学的领导层扩大成员范围，并接受更广泛的团结理念，以更好地捍卫大学教师的工作条件。
