First published in 1984. This book represents a major study of
union responses to the economic crisis of the 1970s and 1980s.
Abjuring governmental or managerial outlooks, it argues that
unions, as representatives of essential producer groups, would be
central to the renegotiation of the economic world. The work also
stresses the importance of situating union responses to the crisis
within the socio-historical evolution of their political economies
during the rise and decline of the post-war economic boom. The
Social Democratic affiliation of unions in Britain, West Germany
and Sweden make them particularly comparable. This title will be of
interest to students of politics and economics.
First published in 1986, this book assesses the politics of the
West German trade unions in the context of their larger role as
major actors in the polity. By focusing on the historical realities
of the labour movement both before and after 1945, the study
explains the extent to which organized labour solidified and
challenged the dominant structures of politics and authority. It
examines the metalworkers' union, the construction workers' union,
the printers' union and the chemical workers' union and shows how
the industrial reality of each organisation helped shape its
political outlook and strategic thinking. This book will be of
particular interest to students of trade unions, industrial
relations and political economy in West Germany.
