NSW Workers’ Compensation Reform: A Parody of Evidence‐based Policy Making
The characteristics and evolution of evidence‐based policy making in Australia and other mature democracies have been mapped extensively in this journal. This article advances research on the use of evidence in policy making, examining changes in the New South Wales workers’ compensation system from 2012 to 2014. This analysis of two phases of policy change, legislative implementation and statutory review, highlights the limitations of building i…
Trans-Tasman Labour History: Introduction

An Antipodean Phenomenon: Comparing the Labo(u)r Party in New Zealand and Australia
The New Zealand Labour Party (NZLP) and the Australian Labor Party (ALP) share many similarities in terms of their ideology, support base and electoral performance. Labour and ideas travelled regularly between New Zealand and Australia. Australian influence was evident in the early NZLP leadership, and New Zealand influenced ALP policy regarding arbitration and age pensions. Subsequently, the NZLP and ALP have enjoyed similar national electoral r…

Class and Labour: The British Labour Party and the Australian Labor Party Compared
The class nature and political trajectory of the British Labour Party (BLP) and the Australian Labour Party (ALP) have been remarkably similar. The greatest manifestations of this similarity have been in terms of each party being the main representative working class political party; the structural significance of trade unions within both parties; and each party being characterised by a dominant ideology of 'labourism'. However, there have also b…
Explaining Union Mobilisation in the 1880s and Early 1900s
The two great upsurges in Australian union mobilisation occurred in the 1880s and the first decade of the twentieth century. In both cases membership increased in scope and intensity: an expansion of the number of union organisations across a wider range of industries and occupations, as well as an increase of union density in industries and occupations where unions already existed. However, a major environmental difference between the two upsurg…

The People's Party. Victorian Labor and the Radical Tradition, 1875-1914
A lively account of the Victorian Labor Party's attempts to find common ground between the competing demands of inner-city workers and farmers, Catholics and Protestants, trade unionists and disaffected liberals, teetotallers and boozers, socialists and feminists

Trade Unions, New Technology, and Industrial Democracy in Australia
Internationally, two basic strategies have been adopted for the macro-management of the industrial relations issues arising from recent technological change. The first has been one of tripartite consultative planning, whereas the second has allowed ‘market forces’ a free hand in determining the nature of technological change in industry. Since 1983 Australia has begun to shift from the second to the first approach, because of changes in the polit…
Populism and the formation of a labor party in New South Wales, 1890–1900
Neo‐corporatism and technological change in Australia: An international perspective
Industrialised nations have responded to the recent impact of new technology either by planning within a corporatist framework, or by reacting to changes determined by ‘market forces’. Australia is moving from the second to the first strategy because of a combination of political and legal changes, building upon traditional institutions

New South Wales Trade Unions and the 'Co-operative Principle' in the 1890s
New Unionism in Australia, 1880-1900
During the 1880s Australian trade unionism underwent a substantial expansion. Whereas trade unionism had been considered primarily the preserve of skilled tradesmen, it spread in the 1880s amongst previously unorganised semi and unskilled workers, notably the shearers, metal miners, and railwaymen. New organisational strategies were associated with this rapid development of unionism, such that it was labelled the 'new unionism' by contemporaries …

Brothers. Male Dominance and Technological Change
Cynthia Cockburn's classic study of masculinity and skill in printing showed newspaper compositors locked in battle with their employers. This new edition adds an Afterword on the final defeat of the men by press owners armed with computer technology and backed by Tatcher's anti-union laws. Brothers began as a study on the human impact of technological change. It ended as an exploration in the making and remaking of men, showing how work and tech…

Populist Politics
Revolutionaries and Reformists
The production of labour history in Australia is still very much a going concern. Bede Nairn published his Civilizing Capitalism (for which there will be a sequel volume) in 1973; Gollan has now written a sequel to his Radical and Working Class Politics; Ian Turner will soon produce a sequel to his Industrial Labour and Politics; and the pages of Labour History continue to abound with shorter, more specific and empirical pieces of work written in…
