In this thesis I analyze the Baltimore-based poor people's human rights organization, the United Workers and its Transformative Community-Labor Organizing paradigm between 2002 and 2008. Accordingly, I analyze three areas. (1) The United Workers as a response to neoliberal capitalism and the declining role of trade unions. (2) The organization and its model as an attempt to offer a successful example of organizing under neoliberalism. That is, within the service and tourist sector, which is nearly devoid of formal working class organization, and working conditions are precarious. (3) The obstacles and achievements of the organization as demonstrated through its organizing model and the Living Wages Campaign at Camden Yards. The greatest obstacle comes in the form of a pedagogical tension, described as a rift in the group's pedagogical praxis. The achievements stem from the resolution of this tension, which offer new ways of approaching labor within neoliberalism. Much of the information on the United Workers presented derives from eight years of participant observations.

520 $a An analysis of the three areas is produced using the works of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, David Harvey, Immanuel Wallerstein and Vanessa Tait's Poor Workers' Unions. They contribute to contextualizing the nature of class struggle, neoliberal capitalism, social movements, the decline of trade unions and the formation of community-labor organizations like the United Workers. Furthermore, the works of Antonio Gramsci, Paulo Freire, Willie Baptist and the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) are drawn upon as they influenced the United Workers in developing its pedagogy and organizing approach.
