Breaking them down into types is a statement that unions “from the practical standpoint cannot be interpreted, evaluated, and judged as a simple consistent whole, or as a succession of more or less accidental and temporary variations from a single normal type” (Hoxie 1921: 54). 18 The Future of the American Labor Movement The reasoning underlying Richard Hyman’s much more recent (1996) classification of European trade unions is similar to Hoxie’s.
