- The significance of this book lies in its original contribution across three areas of academic inquiry: social history of industrial relations in Britain since the 1970s; intersections of gender, race and class in South Asian migration and settlement in the UK; and the contemporary meaning and historiographical significance of the Grunwick and Gate Gourmet industrial disputes. Methodologically rigorous, this book draws upon a wide range of source materials including life-history interviews with 32 strikers and interviews with three senior trade unions officials, archival material including transcripts of evidence given to government enquiries, media reports and employment tribunal judgements. 238 pages.
