Synopsis
Excerpt from The Lesson of Black Friday: A Note on Trade Union Structure
I have attempted in the following pages to make clear two things (i) the actual technical structural weakness of the trade union movement at the present moment, which is obviously a question of pure fact and unrelated to our judgment of whether the aim of trade unionism is good or bad and (2) the under lying assumption oi present - day trade union activity.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an in-depth examination of the underlying causes of the 1921 coal dispute in Britain, using it as a case study to explore the fundamental weaknesses of the trade union movement at the time. The author traces the course of the dispute, highlighting the interplay between economic factors, political maneuvering, and trade union dynamics. The book argues that the dispute exposed the limitations of the prevailing system of industrial relations and foreshadowed the need for a more radical approach to labor relations and wealth distribution. By analyzing the events leading up to and during the conflict, the author offers a critical perspective on the challenges faced by the labor movement and the broader implications of the struggle for a more equitable society. Drawing on historical and economic insights, this book sheds light on the complex relationship between labor, capital, and the state, offering valuable lessons for understanding ongoing debates about economic justice and the future of labor organizing. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
