This approach developed by Flanders &
Fox. According to this approach the organization is composed of individuals who
are divided into a variety of distinct sectional groups, each with its own
interests, objectives, and leadership. It perceives:
1. Organizations as
coalitions of competing interest
2. Trade unions as
legitimate representatives
3. Stability in IR
The implications of this approach are:-
ü Conflict
is both rational and inevitable
ü The
trade union have positive role to ensure the well being of the workers.
