      ab: The article presents an analysis of union membership statistics in 24 countries which yields past and present union density rates. The data used in the analysis provide explanatory factors for the differences and trends in unionization from 1955 to 1990. The main findings for 1970, 1980, and 1990-2003 regarding union membership and density are presented and evaluated. The final part discusses some explanatory factors for the differences and trends in unionization and confronts union membership statistics with data on bargaining coverage, measuring the proportion of employed wage and salary earners directly covered or affected by union-negotiated collective agreements.
