Author Description
The first edition of the Register of Research was compiled in 1985 and contained 173 entries from members of the British Universities Industrial Relations Association. Questionnaires for this second edition were sent to all members in October 1986 with a reminder issued in January 1987. 181 usable replies are included in the Register constituting just over half of the members currently employed in institutions of higher education. Three changes were made in the preparation of this second edition. Most importantly the Register was extended to include research students studying for a higher degree by thesis and those who have completed their thesis in recent years. In order to gain space for these entries the 'areas of special interest' question in the original questionnaire was dropped and the index of institutions has also been omitted.
Menrva's Summary
THE THESIS
This register aims to catalog and present the research activities of members of the British Universities Industrial Relations Association, including research students. The second edition expands its scope to include recent graduates and those currently pursuing higher degrees by thesis. The primary argument is to provide a comprehensive overview of ongoing and recently completed research within the field of industrial relations in UK higher education institutions.

THE AUTHORITY PERSPECTIVE
The Register of Research 1987 serves as a vital directory for the academic community in industrial relations. As the second edition, it builds upon the foundation of the 1985 publication, expanding its coverage to include a broader range of researchers. The inclusion of research students and recent graduates provides a more complete picture of the field's current and emerging scholarship. Its utility lies in its comprehensive listing of active researchers and their work within UK higher education.
