Tracing developments in British trade union structure over almost one hundred years with specific reference to the merger process, the author shows how the underlying processes of change can be related to long-term business cycles. His book therefore provides a framework for understanding some of the options for structural change that may be adopted by trade unions in the future.
Establishing a structure within which the historical development of the merger process may be understood, the book identifies three central sets of relationships: the bargaining position of unions relative to employers and the state; the bargaining position of a union relative to competitor unions; and factional bargaining within unions.
Collectively, these are referred to as 'the politics of bargaining' and are used to explain changes in the rate and character of trade union structural development in the long term.
