摘要

This study examines the development of teacher unions in Florida from World War II until 1975. After the war the state faced a financial crisis in the public schools. This resulted largely from a rapidly increasing urban population coupled with a very narrow tax base. One aspect of that financial crisis was a shortage of teachers caused by low teacher salaries. Activist teachers sought to make the Florida Education Association (FEA) more responsive to their concerns about salaries and working conditions. Although Association leaders incorporated some teacher issues into their legislative programs, superintendents and other school administrators maintained control of the organization. Thus the FEA, which represented rank- and-file teachers, often promulgated policies reflecting the often conflicting interests of management. Because activist teachers failed to gain a greater voice in the Association they also remained unsuccessful in winning legislative support from the business, anti-tax interests that resisted increased school funding. However, they had greater success in the 1960s, when events occurred nationally which had an enormous impact on the teachers and politics of Florida.;In the early 1960s the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) challenged the National Education Association (NEA) for leadership of America's teachers. The Federation's program advocated collective bargaining and strikes to increase teachers' salaries and improve their working conditions. NEA leaders denounced the union strategy, and developed an Association program of professional negotiations and sanctions to counter the AFT campaign. In the process NEA evolved into more a teacher advocacy organization as its leadership, and leaders of its affiliates struggled to shed their managerial perspective both in policies and personnel. The AFT challenge and the NEA resistance resulted in a national jurisdictional war between the two organizations.;Warfare between the NEA and the AFT had a significant impact in Florida. Growing urban locals of the FEA, the NEA's Florida affiliates, especially the one in Dade County, adopted the Association strategy to seek negotiation rights for teachers. Teacher activists from the urban locals also sought to create a more militant state organization. They succeeded, and in 1968, in the midst of a public school financial crisis, urban leaders allied with NEA activists provoked the nation's first statewide walkout of America's teachers. The strike led to a state collective bargaining law and the emergence of two statewide teacher unions in Florida, one allied with the AFT and the other with the NEA.
