| Summary: | This article examines the context to the declining use of statutory recognition machinery to achieve collective bargaining in the UK. It suggests that the prospects for regulatory innovation within the structural confines of the North American Wagner Act model are not promising as a way of reversing this pattern of decline. The article then explores 'regulatory' models of collective bargaining as an alternative strategy, and it suggests ways in which the conceptualization of representational legitimacy might be enriched to support such a strategy. © Australian Labour and Employment Relations Association (ALERA). |
