The skilled revolt against general unionism: the case of the BL Toolroom Committee

Author

Listed:
  • Hugh Scullion

Abstract

During the 1970s, the position of craft workers became increasingly acute: their traditional differentials over semi‐skilled and unskilled workers were eroded to an unprecedented degree; and their privileged position within their trade unions was weakened. Here Hugh Scullion examines developments through a case study of the BL Toolroom Committee.
