This title was first published in 2002: The trade union movement in
twentieth-century Britain has been a cornerstone for society's
marginalized members - women, disabled people, lesbians and gay men
and people from black and ethnic minority communities. As these
groups of workers self-organized to reform their unions, they built
a bridge between the old social movement based around class
position and labour identity and the new social movements based
around civil rights and status stratifications. This book presents
a detailed look at self-organization within public sector unions
through the emergence of four self-organized groups within NALGO
and later, UNISON. Drawing upon unique insider knowledge of the
alliances and antipathies between the self-organized groups and the
host union, the book also provides fascinating revelations of the
tensions between self-organized groups themselves. This study will
be essential reading for students of political sociology and
industrial relations.
