JCL Series: No Power Greater: A History of Union Action in Australia With Dr Liam Byrne
Unions are making a comeback. Labour disputes around the world have hit the headlines as unions take action to challenge inequality. But while media coverage has increased, understanding of unions has not.
Liam Byrne seeks to illuminate what unionism means, exploring why successive generations of working people organised unions and nurtured them for future generations.
Liam spoke at Per Capita's John Cain lunch in June 2025.
