Providing a Nordic historical perspective, this collection aims to
further our understanding of trade union activism and its role in
modern society. Contributions from a range of leading scholars
analyse the organisational conditions of mobilisation that were
deployed by Nordic unionists, and explore the way that they
interacted with other forms of social and political protest during
the twentieth century. Covering illegal or so-called wildcat
strikes, blockades, demonstrations and other activist measures, the
authors examine the way that trade union activism in the Nordic
countries aimed to move the political combat zone from the meeting
rooms of the respective confederations into the streets and the
public domain. The collection focuses on cases from Denmark,
Sweden, Norway and Finland, but comparisons are also made with
countries such as Iceland, Germany, and the USA. Exploring the ways
in which political parties have intervened in Nordic trade union
activism since the early twentieth century, this unique collection
offers new insights for those interested in labour market dynamics
and the complex process behind the formation of salary and
employment conditions.
