This title was first published in 2003.This book explores many of
the major issues of concern to researchers studying trade unionism.
It offers: a definition, elaboration and contextualisation of
militancy (industrial, union and worker); an examination of the
relationship between workplace unionism and the wider body of the
union; a study of factionalism and industrial and political
consciousness: and an analysis of the construction and mobilisation
of conflict and cooperation (social partnership). These themes are
considered through examining the relatively militant response of
British postal workers to increased commercialisation of their
industry. By comparing this response to that of postal workers in
nine other major industrial countries, the study provides an
explanation of why UK postal workers have been relatively
successful in resisting new management techniques and privatisation
through militancy and oppositionalism. One aspect given particular
attention is the uneasy relationship within the postal workers'
union between shop floor militancy and the social partnership
approach followed by the union's leadership.
