Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research found (1) there has been a great variation in public sector union organizing among U.S. states, (2) collective bargaining rights stipulated by state laws and partisan composition of state governments (state legislatures and governors) are among the most significant variables that explain the variation, and (3) changing judicial decisions and legal interpretation by the Supreme Court of the United States have also played an important role in public sector union organizing.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究の成果は、州政府という連邦政府とは異なるレベルで生じる制度変化が、米国の政党や利益団体などの政治的組織の態様を説明する上で重要な変数であることを示した点及び従来の研究とは異なる定量的分析手法を用いた点で、米国政治研究に新たな知見を加えるものである。また、日本と政治・経済・文化的に緊密な関係を有する米国の現代政治に対する理解を深めるという点で、広く社会的意義を有するものである。
