Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Trade Unionism in Australia The scarcity of authoritative Australian books on economic, social and political problems has been severely felt during the development of the Workers' Educational Association in the Commonwealth. On the foundation of the Federal Council of the W. E. A. In 1918, a means of overcoming this difficulty was sought. Among the pro fessors, lecturers and tutors who have so readily assisted the tutorial class movement, some had collected valuable material bearing on these problems. Through the Federal Council it was thought possible to assemble this material for publication in a series of monographs intended for the use of students in tutorial classes and elsewhere. Thus has the W. E. A. Series of publications been founded, and it is hoped that its utility will extend beyond the immediate needs of the members of the W. E. A. To the growing number of students of social problems in Australia. The chief aim of the series being to encourage investiga tion in a field of study hitherto surprisingly neglected in Australia, the W. E. A. Does not accept responsibility for the views expressed by the writers therein. Its purpose is to stimulate thought, not to propagate doctrines. A dis claimer of this kind may appear odd in a preface, but our experience of the persistency with which our critics insist on attributing to the Association the opinions of those who happen to be connected with it, has convinced us that it is necessary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trade Unionism in Australia The group of papers embodied in this report does not claim to present a complete account of Trade Unionism In Australia. They were written by men of great experience in the world Of economics and industry, but differing widely in training, and writing without auv attempt at collusion or conference prior to the actual reading of the papers. It is remarkable, therefore, how clearly can be traced, through most of the papers, certain leading ideas which give them some claim to incorporation in one book under a comprehensive title. T 0 bring this fact into high relief, we place below a series of extracts exhibiting this central idea. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Big Union for Australia The world's toiling masses are stirring; the age-long mental sleep of Labor is breaking, and thoughts almost sweet and visionary whisper the hope of a new indus trial world to countless millions. In the factory and the field are work-weary men and women; in the trenches, high in the air, deep in the gloomy mine men are murmuring this new-born thought of Industrial Freedom. Political freedom has failed to satisfy; the right to vote has been weighed and found wanting. Parliaments and Governments come and go, but the deadly struggle for meals never relaxes, a struggle so frequently fought by the wage-earner - and lost. In the social crucible old ideas are vanishing. In the mad massacre for markets we see beliefs, customs and once-honored institutions being rapidly swept into a well-merited oblivion, and new conditions, bearing with them new ideas, are moving the laboring multitude.

This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trade Unionism, Unemployment, Wages, Prices, and Cost of Living in Australia, 1891-1912: Prepared Under Instructions From the Hon. King O'malley, M. P., Minister of State for Home Affairs It is gratifying to note that the response of the Union Secretaries Was, on the whole, very satisfactory, and the thanks of the Bureau are due to many who went to a considerable amount of trouble and per sonal inconvenience in order to obtain from the books of their Associa tions and from other sources the desired information for past years as far back as 1891. At the outset, the progress of the work was some what hindered by the suspicions and apprehensions of officials of a few labour organisations, but this hindrance practically vanished, as soon as it was realised that the affairs of any single Union would not be disclosed in the published results, and that the investigations had no regard to the prejudices of any political designs, but were being made solely for general statistical purposes. In one or two cases demands for the information had to be issued under the penal pro visions of the Census and Statistics Act 1905. It will be seen herein after that returns have been received from every trade union in the Commonwealth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australia's Awakening, Thirty Years in the Life of an Australian Agitator The hidden seed does not spring forth until it is surrounded by the necessary conditions to start its fermentation. When first its little bud reaches the light of day only the keen observer can tell to what family it belongs; by most it is unnoticed. In years it may become a very giant amongst trees. The Labor Movement in Australia has now become an almost dominant factor in the political life of the community; hence its history, its character and aims should be studied by every citizen of our great Commonwealth. The need of some work setting forth the causes leading up to the present position has been felt for some time. I have in this book attempted to meet that much-felt want from the Labor point of view. In What I feel to be an incomplete form I endeavor to furnish a mirror of the past, and to present from the inside what I conceive to be the future outlook. If the Socialist' Movement of the world is helped, encouraged, and stimulated by this record of our success in Australia, I shall have ample reward.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1960s Australian unionism was on the flood tide: growing in strength, industrially confident and capable of shaping the overall political climate of the nation. Forty years on, union membership and power is ebbing away despite community support for trade unionism and the continuing need for strong unions. Even the unprecedented mobilisation against WorkChoices, which defeated a government and lost the prime minister his own seat, has done little to turn the tide. With compelling rigour, Tom Bramble explores the changing fortunes of what was once an entrenched institution. Trade Unionism in Australia charts the impact on unions of waves of economic restructuring, a succession of hostile governments and a wholesale shift in employer attitudes, as well as the failure of the unions' own efforts to boost membership and consolidate power. Indeed, Bramble demonstrates how the tactics employed by unions since the early 1980s may have paradoxically contributed to their decline.
