    The TUC and the Histadrut, 1945-1982: a Problematic Relationship

    The TUC and the Histadrut, 1945-1982: a problematic relationship Ronnie Fraser Royal Holloway College Doctor of Philosophy 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Ronnie Fraser hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: ________________________ 2 The TUC and the Histadrut, 1945-1982: a problematic relationship Ronnie Fraser Abstract The main purpose of this study is to explore and explain the attitude of the British trade union movement towards Zionism and Israel and how and why it has changed over the years. There have been several studies that concentrate on the attitude of the British Labour Party towards Israel but none that focus on the relationship between the British trade union movement and its Israeli counterpart. Although the unions and the Labour Party had a close relationship, their policies were not always the same with regard to Israel. The relationship between the TUC and the Histadrut, rooted in the 1920s and 1930s, changed fundamentally after the creation of Israel in 1948. This research analyses how that relationship developed and why. Key factors included the attitude of the TUC General Secretaries, the TUC's relationship with the Foreign Office, the context of the international trade union movement, Cold War politics, Britain's post-war role in the Middle East, and the (sometimes surprising) approach of individual trades union leaders such as Jack Jones. The four wars between Israel and the Arabs between 1948-82 also played a part. One constant throughout most of this study is the pro-Zionist stance of the Parliamentary Labour Party compared with the much more ambivalent TUC-Histadrut relations.

  • Chapter 5. Labor Unrest

    Chapter 5. Labor Unrest

    Chapter 5 LABOR UNREST ላሌ The diamond industry is now in prosperity. The income of the private manufacturers grows progressively, and in comparison with market prices before the war this income is almost fantastic. And if in contrast we compare the wages of the worker to the average wages in Belgium we shall see that such wages were paid in Antwerp only during a slump. Should we comply with the fact that a worker must pay from his miser- able wage a very high payment for the usage of the work tools and for the seat in the factory, which anyway remain the owner’s private property? . And the diamond workers are privileged with another condition, un- heard of in the civilized world. The workers (even the old-timers) are forbidden to move from one factory to another without the employer’s permission (there were cases in which one owner bought from another a worker in high price). This is slavery in the full sense of the word which brings us back to Feudal times. —A Diamond Worker, “At the Diamond Workers’ Front,” Hedei Netanya, June 1941 Actors and Issues The diversifi cation of the rough diamonds in autumn 1943 emphasized the duality in the politics of supply. One the one hand it was the lifeline of the industry and allowed the PDMA to maintain its monopoly. On the other hand it harbored the seeds of the industry’s containment. This was the duality that shaped the character of the diamond industry and its practices from start—encouraging its expansion and limiting it at one and at same time.
