A federal agency wants to dictate exactly where businesses can create jobs. Last month, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) issued a complaint against Boeing's decision to open a new aircraft plant in South Carolina. The agency charges that the manufacturer's expansion plans constitute "retaliation" against unions, including the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers Union. Here's the back story.
For years, Seattle-based Boeing has dealt with burdensome labor policies and contentious unions in Washington state. It has endured multiple lengthy strikes since 1989 and lost several business opportunities as a result. The good news: Today, the demand for the company's Dreamliner 787 is so great that Boeing needs to build a new plant to fill the additional orders.

The Great Depression (1929-33) resulted in massive repatriations of Latin Americans from the United States and the introduction of highly restrictive immigration policies in a number of industrialized countries, including France and Canada.1,2 The Oil Crisis (1973) resulted in severe restrictions on labor migration, a concomitant growth in asylum applications and irregular migration in Europe, and the emergence of new flows of labor migration to new industrial centers in Asia and Latin America.3 As a result of the Asian financial crisis (1997-99), several Sotheast Asian countries introduced policies of national preference and sought to expel migrant workers.4 The Russian financial crisis (1998) accelerated rates of emigration from Russia, in particular of Russian Jews and the highly-ski...

My exposure to business started when my brother and I followed my dad to his jobs and to trade shows. He was trained as a civil engineer and became the No. 2 person at a Pennsylvania company that made and installed terrazzo and tile. When I was 12, I worked in a greenhouse, and in high school, I worked at the Army's ROTC summer camp at Indiantown Gap, Pa., at a laundry-and-dry-cleaning pickup point and in the exchange.
After graduating from college, I was a surface warfare officer in the Navy for almost 21 years. During my last four years, I taught at the Royal Naval Staff College in London, where I ran the international relations program. I redesigned the program to make it a master's program with King's College London.

Recent debates about American jobs lost to Mexico, illegal Mexican immigrants, plant closings and machiladora plants on the border of Mexico and the U.S. would suggest to the uninformed reader that NAFTA is a bilateral trade agreement. Forgotten amongst the hoopla about Mexican-American trade relations is the fact that Canada remains the largest single trading partner of the U.S. Ironically, in spite of its importance to the American economy, very few studies have addressed Canada as a relevant topic in undergraduate or graduate business programs. Using the extant literature on internationalizing the business curriculum, this paper uses a number of sources of research data to argue for the introduction of the study of Canada into the international business curricula of American business...

GAITHERSBURG, Md., Nov 5, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- A union affiliated with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) used contract negotiations to punish two employees who supported a rival union, according to a recent complaint issued by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
The NLRB complaint alleges that the Rochester Regional Joint Board of Workers United, an SEIU affiliate, committed unfair labor practices by negotiating to insert new language in a labor contract that reduced the pay and work opportunities of the employees, Sharron Rodrigue and Tina Mayotte. Both are Sodexo employees who work in cafeteria and catering jobs at Empire State Plaza in Albany, NY. The NLRB is the independent federal agency empowered to protect employees' rights to join a union and to prevent and...
