A History of Trade Unionism in Australia is a book written by James Thomas Sutcliffe in 1921. It provides a comprehensive account of the development of trade unions in Australia from the early colonial period to the early 20th century. The book explores the social, economic, and political factors that led to the formation of trade unions, their struggles and achievements, and the impact they had on the Australian workforce.Sutcliffe examines the various types of unions that emerged in Australia, including craft unions, industrial unions, and white-collar unions. He also discusses the role of women in the union movement, as well as the challenges faced by minority groups such as Indigenous Australians and Chinese immigrants.The book provides a detailed analysis of the major strikes and industrial disputes that occurred in Australia during this period, including the Shearers' Strike of 1891 and the Great Strike of 1917. Sutcliffe also examines the political influence of the trade union movement, including its relationship with the Australian Labor Party.Overall, A History of Trade Unionism in Australia is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Australian labor movement and the role of trade unions in shaping Australian society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
