Since the end of World War II, worker participation in management has expanded in varying degrees, in different forms, and at different levels. In West Europe both collective bargaining and mutualism have expanded dramatically and workers participation in management seems destined to advance. In Britain and North America the adversary System of collective bargaining has predominated. Mutualistic schemes have been in the small minority. The attitudinal climate has not been conducive to consensus thinking in industrial relations.

Presents two reports on the Knights of Labor Centennial Symposium held in Chicago in May 1979. The symposium focussed on the Knights of Labor in the US. Dick's wide-ranging commentary (pages 185-190) noted British historian E.P. Thompson's influence on the work of symposium leaders Herbert Gutman and David Montgomery as well as several of those who gave papers. Reilly (pages 190-92), in contrast, reported on the three papers on the Knights of Labor in Ontario given by Canadian historians Russell Hann, Gregory Kealey, and Bryan Palmer. The latter two's presentations consisted of selections from their forthcoming book, "Dreaming of What Might Be: The Knights of Labor in Ontario, 1880-1900."

The trade unions’ reluctance to accept the reforms envisaged in the Industrial Relations Act 1971 is cited as an important example of trade unions* intransigence and arrogance and of the fact that they consider themselves to be above law. But the way the trade unions fought the Act appears to be quite in keeping with the democratic procedure and the rule of law.

The intensified problems of an increasingly urban and industrial Canada by the late nineteenth century stimulated the development of a significant movement of radical social critics. This article describes and interprets the convictions, supporters, and organizations of Canadian radicalism during the 1890s, encompassing labour leaders, anti-monopolists, single taxers, social gospellers, and the like. The radicals rejected free-market assumptions and, on the basis of their concern for ethical values and for the protection of the productive elements of the community, advocated a radically restructured society based on cooperation and brotherhood. The article explains the rise of socialist ideas against the background of traditional forms of radical protest.
