Abstract

The traditional view of fact finding and interest arbitration is that they are primarily educational: to inform union members, legislators, and the electorate of the facts so they will support the neutral's decision. This article challenges this view and explores the ways in which the fact finding and interest arbitration processes are used to "sell" a settlement to the various constituencies.
