- Title
Renewal in the United Faculty of Florida: Class War in Paradise?
- Authors
Fiorito, Jack; Gallagher, Vickie Coleman
- Abstract
This paper reviews faculty union developments in Florida public universities during 2000-2005, a tumultuous period in which the statewide university governance board was abolished and governance was devolved to university-level boards. The Jeb Bush Administration used devolution to eliminate bargaining for thousands of faculty at eleven universities. Using a case study format and participant-observer perspective, we emphasize the perspective of key constituents from Florida State University. A union renewal lens examines various union renewal meanings and controversies over the "organizing model" and "servicing model."
