Trade Union Leadership and Sustainability in the Contemporary World of Work
Adekunle Theophilius Tinuoye (Micheal Imoudu National Institute for Labour Studies, Nigeria)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-6684-8257-5.ch007
Abstract
The industrial revolution resulted in a conflict of interest between the employer and employee and the emergence of trade unions. By contributing to harmonizing workplace interests, formulating rules governing workplace relations, and protecting workers' rights and welfare, the imprimatur of trade unions are manifest in every facet of global socio-economic and political progress. However, certain developments, practices, and trends have served to weaken the labor movement and brought to the fore germane questions about the utility of trade unions; and it is against this background, that the ethos of unity, cohesion, and solidarity and backed by sound, pragmatic, and ethical leadership should be utilized in their quest to continue to organize, mobilize, and strategize to champion the cause of the working class. Therefore, this chapter would focus on the above themes and proffer leadership strategies for the continued relevance of trade unions as institutions for servicing worker needs in eras of uncertainty.

Strengthening Performance of Civil Society Through Dialogue and Critical Thinking in Nigeria: Its Ethical Implications
The notion of dialogue is an important concept in the contemporary world. It plays a very significant role in many public discourses, and has influence throughout the world in various facets of life. Dialogue is a multifaceted concept which manifest explicitly in the philosophical, theological and social dimension of the society. The concept of dialogue first appeared in ancient times, in Greece, where ancient thinkers thought that dialogue helped both to develop knowledge (science) and to shape man's character, as well as to develop man's individuality and in result particular personality. Dialogue dialogue can properly be described as a special kind of discourse that enables people with different perspectives and worldviews to work together to achieve certain objectives in life such as dispelling mistrust and creating a climate of good faith, break through negative stereotypes, shift the focus in all human endeavours from transactions to relationships and creating community, making participants in dialogue more sympathetic to one another even when there are disagreements, preparing the ground for negotiation or decision making on emotion-laden issues in the society, and expanding the number of people committed to constructive decisions on challenging issues.
