This second phase study was a general and comparative investigation of trade unionism in the ports of London, Liverpool, Birkenhead and Hull, from 1945-1967, with an emphasis on the development of workplace and unofficial organisation. Particular attention was given to obtaining full accounts of the informal practices of the labour market and to the different attitudes to piecework. The data collected included documentary research on public and private papers of trade unions, employers and employers organisations, port joint negotiating committees, and in-depth interviews looking at the influence of ideological and cultural factors in the formation of policies in both workers' and employers' organisations.<br>
