	workSite: Working the New Zealand Waterfront
		While the focus of this book is not exclusively upon waterfront unions or upon the events of 1951 it does demonstrate that the unions played a central role in the organisation of work and the wider life of wharfies.
		The distance of New Zealand and Australia from their traditional markets, and the fact that the facilitation of imports and exports took place on the waterfront, made it no surprise that wharf would become a pivotal point of friction between workers and their unions and capital and its ally, the state.
		While this book is focused upon the New Zealand waterfront, the international nature of capital ensured that the men who worked the wharves were themselves international in outlook and solidarity.
