This lucid and infiormative book examines the changing relationship between the trade unions and British governments from the making of the social settlement of 1944-1945 to the post-Thatcherite era of the Conservative political domination of the early 1990s.
The trade unions were a central issue in Britain's post-war politics. Criticised by many as being too powerful and a negative force on the economic development of the country, they posed a recurrent problem for successive British governments - both Labour as well as Conservative - as they sought to resolve the troubles of an economy in relative decline.
