Social Movement Unionism Generally Achieves Its Goals Using Structural Power

Question

Social movement unionism generally achieves its goals using structural power alone.

Accepted Answer

Social movement unionism involves using both structural power (such as the power to negotiate labor contracts) and relational power (such as building alliances with community groups and using collective action) to achieve its goals. This means that it is not solely reliant on structural power and may also use other strategies to create change.
