This chapter provides an overview of the state of international research on dock labour history. The reports based on the framework document were written and delivered by the various participants by March 1997. Many historians would agree with the assertion that dockers have been an especially militant and strike-prone group of workers. Taking dock workers as a focal point and using a broad social and historical perspective, it is important to analyse their everyday lifeand their political articulations and strikes, as well as the economic structures and organisations that influenced their working and living conditions.",
