Description

Explore the profound transformations of the Scottish mining industry through this historical study by Routledge. Covering the years 1874 to 1939, this volume examines how miners moved from a period of high autonomy underground during the nineteenth century to a highly mechanized work environment in the twentieth century. As Scotland became one of the most intensively mechanized coalfields in Britain, the shift in work conditions triggered significant industrial unrest. This book analyzes the grievances that led to strike rates in Scotland reaching ten to fifteen times higher than those in major English coalfields. Readers will gain insight into how industrial conflict was shaped by geographical variation and specific social variables. This text provides a detailed look at the evolution of industry, work, and community within the Scottish coal mining sector.
