Labour History - A Journal of Labour and Social History

The interdisciplinary nature of labour history, and its acceptance of less traditional sources, including folklore and oral testimony, make it a fascinating field, alive to past and present social justice issues.

The journal, which has been appearing twice yearly since 1962, is the premier outlet for refereed, scholarly articles in its field in Australasia.

Because the ASSLH aims to raise historical awareness in the community, Labour History also publishes essays, reviews, and memoirs that reflect the involvement of labour historians in the making of history.

Labour History is a member of the History Co-operative, based at the University of Illinois, which provides an online edition of the full text of each issue. Subscribers receive the printed edition and have the benefits of a digital edition as well. See how. Non-subscribers may also consult the full text for the two most recent issues (there is a fee for access); older issues are freely accessible.

Here at asslh.org.au we have made available the digitised Contents pages of the journal (no.1 to the present issue), and the Abstracts since issue 74 (May 1998). They can be browsed or searched, with most back issues available for purchase by credit card through our SSL Secure Server.
