Undermining Capitalism: State Ownership and the Dialectic of Control in the British Coal Industry (Princeton Legacy Library)
No reviews yet.
Beginning with the nationalized British coal industry and then raising more general issues concerning the contemporary state, Joel Krieger studies the day wage structure for face workers (National Power Loading Agreement) introduced by the National Coal Board in 1966, its consequences, and the ways in which earlier work conventions, wage structures, and social relations affected it.
Originally published in 1984.
