| | Union Corruption: Why It Happens, How to Combat It (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | In the view of this monograph, corruption, far from an aberration, is endemic to an enormous portion of American trade unionism, and worse, is accompanied by a culture of intimidation. |
 | | Corruption begets more corruption, and if rank and file are crooked, it is certain that their hostility toward whistle-blowers will burn especially hot. |
