The Radical Tradition site has been restructured and includes several
new items:
Foremost of these new items are essays by Bob James on Labour History.
The essays raise questions on the focus of Labour History, and the
writing of history to eliminate people and organisations which don't fit
in to the official 'Labour History' model.
Although the focus of research is Australian based, the arguments draw
on much material from Britain and North America, and from Europe. Bob
argues that anarchists, women, and a whole range of working peoples
organisations have been effectively ignored in the writing of Labour
History.
Recent additions to the site include:
Secret Societies and the Labour Movement....Bob James
The Knights of Labour and their context....Bob James

Through studying the lessons of the past, Radical Tradition works for
the creation of
social and political structures which allow all people equal decision
making power and
equal access to society's wealth.
