Boulewarism refers to a 'take-it-or-leave-it' offer made by management to labor in the context of collective bargaining, circumventing union negotiations. It has been ruled illegal as a violation of the Wagner Act (National Labor Relations Act of 1935).
A pivotal federal statute aimed at promoting and protecting employees' rights to organize and collectively bargain while prohibiting certain unfair labor practices by employers.
The Wagner Act, also known as the National Labor Relations Act, is a fundamental legislation enacted in 1935 that significantly strengthened labor's bargaining power and established guidelines to prohibit anti-labor practices by management. It created the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to enforce labor laws and support workers' rights.
