Comrades in Conflict: Labour, the Trade Unions and 1969's in Place of Strife

by Peter Dorey

Book Overview

This is the first in-depth academic study of the Labour Government's 1969 attempt to introduce industrial relations to curb strikes by trade unions. Using archival sources, this book explains how this attempt provoked strong opposition in the Party, and from the unions, to the extent that it was abandoned in a humiliating climb-down.
