The Actu Congress of 2000
The Actu Congress of 1997
The biennial Congress that opened in the Brisbane City Hall on Monday, 1 September, was the last of its kind: future Congresses will meet every three years.1 More significantly, it was the first Congress to have a woman president in the chair, the first to be addressed by the parliamentary leader of a non-Labor party, the first in sixteen years to meet in the shadow of a non-Labor federal government, and only the second to be addressed by a leade…
The Actu Congress of 1995
It was a strange Congress that opened in Melbourne University's Wilson Hall on Wednesday, 27 September. It would not have been convened at all had the constitution allowed its cancellation. Nobody, initially, thought there was much point to it. That was why it was the shortest biennial Congress in the ACTU's history. That was also why the major problem for its organisers was how to fill in the time allotted to it. As it happened, they had a windf…
The ATU Congress of 1993
The biennial congress opened in Sydney's Darling Harbour Convention Centre on Monday, 30 August, with the representatives of just 72 unions in attendance.1 The total number of unions affiliated to the ACTU, according to a list in an executive report, was no more than 80.2 In 1987, almost twice as many unions, 142 out of a grand total of 161 affiliates, had sent delegates to congress; and as late as 1991, the corresponding figure had been 105, out…
The Actu Congress of 1991
The biennial congress opened on Monday, 9 September, in Melbourne's cavernous World Congress Centre. As at the preceding congress,1 precisely 100 affiliated unions were represented at the opening session. In 1989 this initial figure, the product of an airline dispute, subsequently shot up to 120. In 1991, however, it rose no higher than 105;2 and the low attendance (by the standard of 1987, for example, when 142 unions were represented) was the o…

Pluralism and the New Corporatism
There has recently been a revival of interest in the notion of ‘corporatism’, with particular reference to its application in the context of liberal democratic political systems. The principal authors of this revival have depicted ‘liberal corporatism’ as involving relations between government and interest groups that are radically different from those characteristic of ‘pluralism’. However, deficiencies in their definition of liberal corporatism…

Legal Enforcement of Union Security in Australia
Union security is usually thought to be an issue of major political importance only in those situations where the labor movement is weak, politically as well as economically, and where encouragement of collective bargaining is not a major tenet of public policy. Australia, as is well known, does not correspond to this picture: unions are comparatively well-established and numerically strong; industrial tribunals alter or enforce the terms of coll…
