As these groups of workers self-organized to reform their unions, they built a bridge between the old social movement based around class position and labour identity and the new social movements based around civil rights and status stratifications. This book presents a detailed look at self-organization within public sector unions through the emergence of four self-organized groups within NALGO and later, UNISON. Drawing upon unique insider knowledge of the alliances and antipathies between the self-organized groups and the host union, the book also provides fascinating revelations of the tensions between self-organized groups themselves. This study will be essential reading for students of political sociology and industrial relations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46931529531543,"sku":"9781138731943","price":2988.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138731943.webp?v=1771614170","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/towards-a-politics-of-the-rainbow-self-organization-in-the-trade-union-movement-9781138731943","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
