ABSTRACT
The main powers which these privileged institutions wield, says Hayek, are those of coercing or intimidating fellow-members of trade unions and non-members by mass picketing and other means to withhold their labour in the event of strikes (p. 274), of restricting the numbers of employees in particular trades by closed or union shops (p. 275), and of forcing other workers to fall in with union policies by secondary strikes or boycotts (p. 275).
