Abstract

Der Beitrag behandelt in multidisziplinärer Perspektive Berufsgewerkschaften als neue, unabhängig-autonome Akteure der Tarifpolitik. Im Mittelpunkt stehen drei Fragestellungen: Wie kann ihre Mutation von Berufsverbänden zu Berufsgewerkschaften nicht nur beschrieben, sondern auch theoretisch erklärt werden? Wie sind aktuelle Entwicklungen, wie gesetzliche Regelungen sowie freiwillig-autonome Vereinbarungen der Verbände, einzuordnen? Welche Konsequenzen hat ihre Etablierung für die bestehenden Arbeitsbeziehungen auf Makro- und Branchenebene? ‒ Bei der Unterscheidung zwischen ökonomischen und organisatorischen Zielen zeigt der Beitrag, dass Berufsgewerkschaften in besonderem Maße ihre organisationspolitischen Eigeninteressen der dauerhaften, rechtlichen und faktischen Anerkennung als autonom-unabhängige Tarifpartner durchsetzen konnten.
