Organized labor is about the collective efforts of employees to
improve their economic, social, and political position. It can be
studied from many different points of view historical, economic,
sociological, or legal but it is fundamentally about the struggle
for human rights and social justice. As a rule, organized labor has
tried to make the world a fairer place. Even though it has only
ever covered a minority of employees in most countries, its effects
on their political, economic, and social systems have been
generally positive. History shows that when organized labor is
repressed, the whole society suffers and is made less just. The
Historical Dictionary of Organized Labor looks at the history of
organized labor to see where it came from and where it has been.
This is done through a chronology, an introductory essay,
appendixes, a glossary of terms, and an extensive bibliography. The
dictionary section has over 400 cross-referenced entries on most
countries, international as well as national labor organizations,
major labor unions, leaders, and other aspects of organized labor
such as changes in the composition of its membership. This book is
an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone
wanting to know more about organized labor."
