Dirty Business:How Mining Made AustraliaS1 Ep2

A provocative and groundbreaking series, this is the story of mining in this country. Mining has always been about politics, and this second episode explores the fractious, drama-filled and utterly critical relationship between business and government and the importance of this affiliation to the nation. It illustrates how mining has been a crucible through which both the Labor movement and big business have tried to influence, infiltrate and control governments.
