Notes	Series CP/CENT/ECON: Because of the CPGB's presence in the trade union movement, the party's understanding of current economic issues was of considerable strategic importance for the party. This was to be vigorously demonstrated in the 1970s, when the party's economic committee became the forum for fierce debates between industrial activists and functionaries committed to wage militancy, and younger academic economists seeking to look beyond the short-term pursuit of money wages. Though overt conflict was not a feature of the committee's deliberations when first established in the 1940s, the link between its perspectives and the policies of communists in industry was clearly recognised from the beginning, and may be traced here in files dating from the 1940s to the 1980s.
