 abstract = {Despite economic globalization, the liberalization of European markets and rapid                technological changes, membership density in the trade unions in the metal sector in                the Nordic countries remains exceptionally high compared to any other European                region. The coverage of collective agreements has also remained intact, and                unemployment is low by European standards. Nevertheless, the Nordic metal unions                face a number of dilemmas. They all recognize a need to engage more actively in                international, and especially European-level, policy-making, including the                coordination of bargaining processes. Yet they fear that European regulation may                undermine their national bargaining autonomy. They also recognize the need for a                common Nordic position with regard to European policies; but differences in                industrial structures and traditions of labour market regulation, alongside                different national relationships to the European Union and Economic and Monetary                Union, represent obstacles to closer cooperation between the Nordic metal                federations. Moreover, a lasting problem is the winning of the support of their                members for European and global activities.},
