The Origins of British Industrial Relations (1975) traces the beginnings of industrial relations in nineteenth century Britain, looking at the interdependence of economic, political, legal and ideological factors that provide the framework. This important study, focusing on the key sectors of engineering, building, coal mining and cotton textiles, shows how the origins of British industrial relations reflected the changing character of international capitalism during the nineteenth century.
