In addition to being the most bitter industrial dispute the coalminers' strike of 1984/5 was the longest national strike in British history. For a year over 100,000 members of the National Union of Mineworkers, their families and supporters, in hundreds of communities, battled to prevent the decimation of the coal industry on which their livelihoods and communities depended. Margaret Thatcher's government aimed to smash the most militant section of the British working class. She wanted to usher in a new era of greater management control at work and pave the way for a radical refashioning of society in favour of neo-liberal objectives that three decades later have crippled the world economy.??Victory required draconian restrictions on picketing and the development of a militarised national police force that made widespread arrests as part of its criminalisation policy. The attacks on the miners also involved the use of the courts and anti-trade union laws, restrictions on welfare benefits, the secret financing by industrialists of working miners and the involvement of the security services. All of which was supported by a compliant mass media but resisted by the collective courage of miners and mining communities in which the role of Women against Pit Closures in combating poverty and starvation was heroic. Thus inspired by the struggle for jobs and communities an unparalleled movement of support groups right across Britain and in other parts of the world was born and helped bring about a situation where the miners long struggle came close on occasions to winning.??At the heart of the conflict was the Yorkshire region, where even at the end in March 1985, 83 per cent of 56,000 miners were still out on strike. The official Yorkshire National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) area photographer in 1984-85 was the late Martin Jenkinson and this book of his photographs _ some never previously seen before - serves as a unique social document on the dispute that changed the face of Britain.??As featured in The Yorkshire Times, Sheffield Telegraph and NUJ News Leeds.

Excerpt from Under Which Master, or the Story of the Long Strike at Coverdale: A Romance of Labor As we reach the comer of Dale and Mine Streets, we approach a large Catholic church, the largest church in fact, in the city. It is a fine edifice, with tall, slender spire lifting its gilded cross heavenward where it glows and burns in the light of the morning sun like a beacon light from the Eternal City. Begin ning with Mine Street, and from there to River or Front Street, the first street east of the Middle Val ley Railroad along Dale Street, lies the business part of Coverdale; while on the cross streets and the streets parallel with Dale Street are the residences of the tradespeople and business men of the town. In this portion of the town, liying to the north of Dale Street, and in sight of the Cover homestead, is the neat and unpretending home of Mrs. Clatty. Going back to the place from which we started, to take up the trend of the story so that it may be clear and intelligible to the reader, we will describe a little more minutely these scenes. The house in which the Dales live is situated on the north side of Dale Street, and fronting on it. On the east side of this lot runs a narrow street called Glen Lane, leading from the bluffs on the north and crossing Dale Street runs south ward a little way, ending in a deep, narrow ravine which leads to the glen before mentioned, lying south of the town. Crossing right at this point, the Coverdale Cedar Summit Railroad has erected a high bridge spanning the creek and the glen, which is separated from the creek here by a rocky bluff that j uts out into the creek, forming its west bank, and wholly cutting the glen from the creek until it reaches the lower ground, when this rocky wall, having narrowed to a point, wholly disappears. Farther along the reader will see why we have been so explicit in describing this particular spot, and it will be well that this description be kept well in mind in the further perusal of this story.

TV on Strike examines the upheaval in the entertainment industry by telling the inside story of the hundred-day writers’ strike that crippled Hollywood in late 2007 and early 2008. The television industry’s uneasy transition to the digital age was the driving force behind the most significant labor dispute of the twenty-first century. The strike put a spotlight on how the advent of new-media distribution platforms is reshaping the traditional business models that have governed the television industry for decades. The uncertainty that sent writers out into the streets of Los Angeles and New York with picket signs laid bare the depth of the divide between the media barons who rule the entertainment industry and the writers who are integral as the creators of movies and television shows. With both sides afraid of losing millions in future profits, a critical communication breakdown spurred a fierce battle with repercussions that continue today. The saga of the Writers Guild of America strike is told through the eyes of the key players on both sides of the negotiating table and of the foot soldiers who surprised even themselves with the strength of their resolve to fight for their rights in the face of an ambiguous future. In the years since the strike ended, the rise of digital distribution platforms has changed the business landscape in ways that few could have predicted when Hollywood guilds were feverishly trying to hammer out a contract template for a new era.

This book, first published in 1986, examines the miners’ strike of 1984-5 – an event that formed the decisive break with a forty-year-old British tradition of political and industrial compromise. The stakes for the main parties were so high that the price each was willing to pay, the loss each was willing to sustain, exceeded anything seen in an industrial dispute in half a century. This book examines and assesses the strike’s full implications, and puts it into its historical and political context.

"The miner's strike came to be called the "Great Strike", with good reason. It was the largest, longest, trade union struggle in Britain, and the most far reaching in its consequences since the 1926 General Strike. For a year 170,000 miners, plus the women in the mining communities, battled against everything the government and the police threw at them." "Only 30 miners out of 2,500 from Leicestershire coal-field struck against the pit closure programme. They became renowned as The Dirty Thirty and travelled the world for the strike fund selling badges, mugs and plates, making speeches and supporting the other striking miner." "David Bell has interviewed many of the members of the Dirty Thirty and the women's support group to find out why they struck, and why they held out for so long. Published to mark the 25th anniversary of the 1984-85 Miner's Strike, this is the story of the miners and their wives and families' courage, humour and an unbreakable will to win" --Book Jacket.
