1.1 INTRODUCTION

 The period since 1979 has been a traumatic one for British trade unionism

 As an organized movement, trade unionism (also called organized labour)

originated in the 19th century in Great Britain, continental Europe, and
the United States.

 The trade union, through an elected leadership and bargaining

committee, bargains with the employer on behalf of union members
(rank and file members) and negotiates labour contracts (collective
bargaining) with employers.
 The most common purpose of these associations or unions is
"maintaining or improving the conditions of their employment".

 Unions may organize a particular section of skilled workers (craft

unionism) a cross-section of workers from various trades (general
unionism), or attempt to organize all workers within a particular
industry (industrial unionism).
1.2. CONCLUSIONS

1. In conclusion, trade unions still tend to play an important role in

protecting workers and helping them enforce their legal rights.

2. The time spans selected follow the well-documented explosions of industria conflict in
mature capitalist nations.

3.  Unions will also be able to support employees when they feel that the
psychological contract between workers and managers is being breached, and
can help workers to renegotiate this contract if necessary.

4. Unfortunately, a post structuralist view of the trade unions indicates that the
unions tend to be more responsive to their own social contract with the workers.

5.  This can lead to unions behaving in overly militant ways, particularly when they
feel their own power and relevance is being threatened.

6. Overall what does emerge, is the relationship between the growth of trade unionism
and the underlying sense of injustice
