This paper studies the impact of legal strength on trade unions in China, finding that a strong legal system can empower trade unions and improve labor outcomes.
This paper studies how legal strength-the effectiveness of a legal system in governing the use of laws-influences trade unions in China. By focusing on the institutional environment in which laws are practiced, I theorize that a strong legal system can empower trade unions through direct legal mobilization and legal consciousness. Empirical analysis with data collected from multiple sources supports this prediction. I find that unionization is more prevalent in strong legal systems than in weak ones. Moreover, Chinese unions improve labor outcomes to a greater extent when one or more dimensions of the legal systems are strong.
