We show that in interdependent, unionised economies co-operation between wagesetters at home and abroad improves both their own positions and social welfare relative to universal Nash play. Moreover, a move from all-round Nash play to co-operation between home and foreign unions and between home and foreign policymakers may produce Pareto improvements, or outcomes that are preferable to Nash play for the coalition as a whole. However, intra-national coalitions may lack the support of unions. Such coalitions unambiguously improve the policymakers' position. However, in an interdependent world, they do not necessarily make the unions better off relative to other regimes.
