In this era of global economy, outsourcing labor and fortune 500 non union companies how will the Unions in general attempt to stay relevant?

The ultimate solution to unions staying relevant globally is what the Wobblies proposed, organize workers everywhere in the world. Individuals also need to change their thinking about having common cause with other workers.

Everyone does what he has to to survive economically. So, we do what we have to now and work for better conditions in the workplace. Then workers have more choices and opportunities than mere survival.
