This volume examines the way in which the growth of an organized labour movement and the emergence of a separate Labour party contributed towards the industrialization of politics and the institutionalization of industrial conflicts in the political sphere. It also explores the changing attitudes of all parties, Labour included, to major questions of public policy such as the management and regulation of industry, the relief of unemployment, the conduct of industrial relations and the reform of trade union law. Chronological tables of principle events, acts of Parliament, statitstics on trade union membership and the Labour vote are included along with a bibliographical essay giving guidance on further reading.
