Australia reconstructed : ACTU/TDC mission to Western Europe : a report / by the mission members to the ACTU and the TDC, 1987
The book was written after a joint mission in 1987 of the ACTU and the federal Government's Trade Development Commission to examine economic outcomes of European countries – e.g. Sweden and Austria – alongside their labour practices. One of the major recommendations of the report is that the union movement might strengthen its collective power by amalgamations to create fewer but larger unions. At the time the latter recommendation was embraced by the ACTU.Significant to Australian and European economic and labour practices in the 1980s and union growth strategies.Paper; book.btlc, ballarat trades and labour council, ballarat trades hall, actu, australian council of trade unions, trade development commission, economy, workplace relations, unions, europe, labour practices, unions - amalgamations -
