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.
