Description

Explore the deep roots of British labour history with this scholarly work from Routledge. Early Trade Unionism: Fraternity, Skill and the Politics of Labour offers a critical survey that traces the development of trade union principles and practices from the seventeenth century through to the mid-Victorian era. This book argues for the importance of trade unionism in understanding the broader historical landscape. By examining labour organisation dating back to the fourteenth century, the text provides a clear window into how workers structured themselves and their influence on society. It serves as a vital resource for students and historians looking to understand the evolution of labour movements and the social structures that shaped them. Whether you are researching economic history or the politics of labour, this volume provides a necessary perspective on a subject that has been marginalised in recent scholarship. It connects early organisational methods to the growth of modern labour principles, making it a valuable addition to any collection of business and economic history.
