Reihe: New Perspectives on the Right

This book explores the long-term relationship between the Conservative Party, trade unions, and the organised working class. It focuses on the question of why the Conservative Party for much of its history sought to accommodate the unions and why in the 1970s and 1980s it adopted a policy of excluding the unions.
