Originally published in 1952, The Government of British Trade
Unions analyses the government, in theory and in practice, of one
of Britain's most important labour organizations - The Transport
and General Works Union in the first half of the 20th Century. It
is an appraisal of the role of the rank and file within this union
of over one million members, to determine both the opportunity for,
and the extent of their participation in, this State within a
State. Original sources and materials, which had not previously
been made public in relation to any major British or American Trade
Union, were used to ascertain member turnover, participation in
elections, attendance at Branch meetings and the effect of the
repeal of the Trade Disputes Act on Labour Party membership. The
study is of great interest both for the light it throws on the
general question of Trade Unions in the modern State, and for its
analysis of the Transport and General Works Union itself.
