Industrialisation and Trade Union Organization in South Africa, 1924–1955 - The Rise and Fall of the South African Trades and Labour Council

This 1984 study of South African trade unionism traces the history of the TLC from its origins in the 1920s to its demise in the early 1950s. It shows how divisions within the labour movement were bound up with the development of production processes, rather than being the inevitable outcome of racial antagonisms.
