Abstract
This article critically examines the proposition that industrial relations in banking in the UK are undergoing a move from paternalism to adversarialism and then to partnership. It uses these as ideal‐types totrack and explain the developments in industrial relations and argues that the sectoris sufficiently diverse across space and time and subject to different forces as tobelie sucha straight‐forward and simple characterisation.Keywords
