The 1929 Timber Workers Strike: The Role of Community and Gender

D. van den Broek

Working Papers from The University of New South Wales. Department of Industrial Relations.

Abstract: Women's involvement in trade unions and their direct participation in industrial action has been the subject of growing interest for labour historians and industrial relations scholars. Some research has also concentrated on women's indirect participation to paid work. However just as this field of investigation has made inroads into the study of labour history, some have advised a return to 'traditional' concerns of institutional labour history.
