Abstract

The coal industry of New South Wales has been amongst the most strike-torn industries in Australia, and typically still has 15 times more strikes than the state average. This article presents a historical study of this industry between 1952 and 1987, focusing on the major institutional, technological, and market changes that have taken place in the industry during this time. The relationship between these changes and the levels of industrial disputation is then further investigated using econometric analysis, in an attempt to explain the high levels of strike activity.
