Article abstract
The authors present the debate over whether or not industrialrelations constitutes a discipline, and then discuss some of theimplications of this debate for the development of industrialrelations teaching units and curriculum content. Alternativeorganizational approaches to graduate-level study of industrialrelations in Canada and the United States are broadlycharacterized as « sovereign Discipline » and « dependentfield » models. The authors posit that the teaching model usedis a direct reflection of whether or not the field of industrialrelations is recognized as a sufficiently independent field ofinquiry. Finally, the authors consider some of the factorsinfluencing changes in program content and offer someimplications of these factors for the future study of industrialrelation.
