The recent wave of globalization has a profound impact on labour.
Consequently, research in the field of labour and working-class
history has become less Eurocentric and more global over the last
twenty years. Outstanding specialists take stock of the
globalization of the field in eighteen essays. Two introductory
essays discuss the theoretical consequences of this development as
well as the early historiography of labour and working-class
history. Next, ten essays provide an exceptionally complete
coverage of recent historiographical trends in the labour history
of Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America,
Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, China, Japan, and Australasia.
Finally, six case studies research worldwide and comparative
aspects of global labour history, developing best practices in this
new and difficult field. They include a wide variety of occupations
and economic sectors: agricultural labour, domestic labour, brick
making, coal mining and the work done in the docks and on the
railways on different continents.
