The Politics of Industrial Relations

London England: Fontana. Paperback. Slight foxing to edge. Slight mark to back cover. Industrial relations, itself a field of urgen concern, also provides a crucial arena for observing a more general phenomenon in British politics since the Second World Wae: the challenge posed to characteristically liberal institutions by the country's declining economic position. Inflation, and its consequent balance-of-payments and foreign-exchange crises, has narrowed the room for manoeuvre required by the compromises traditionally reached between management and labour; and this has led to successive waves of government intervention and a politicization of industrial conflict of a kind which British liberalism sought to avoid. 223 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) .
