Scope and Content
Administrative / Biographical History
The project examined shipbuilding workers on Tyneside as a particular occupational category and compared their attitudes and behaviour with those of workers in other industries. It also examined the technology and organisation of production in a "craft" industry and the "orientation to work" of workers from traditional working-class communities.
