Funded Activity Summary

The Australian Council of Trade Unions in the Making of Modern Australia. This project brings political, economic and social history together with a feminist analysis to explore the Australian Council of Trade Unions' significance in shaping modern Australia. Positioned within a national framework of labour politics and economic restructuring, and an international context of Cold War adversarialism, the project goes beyond the ACTU's key role in workplace bargaining to an assessment of its international profile and the impact on the organisation of a feminising labour market and emergent women’s leadership. In an innovative study that highlights the Hawke era to show the ACTU's history as one of transition to governance, we aim to reveal the potential of the Australian labour movement to effect change.
