Struggle and Mutual Aid: The Age of Worker Solidarity - Hardcover
by Nicolas Delalande (Author), Anthony Roberts (Translator)
A dynamic historian revisits the workers' internationals, whose scope and significance are commonly overlooked.
In current debates about globalization, open and borderless elites are often set in opposition to the immobile and protectionist working classes. This view obscures a major historical fact: for around a century--from the 1860s to the 1970s--worker movements were at the cutting edge of internationalism.Nicolas Delalande is an associate professor of history at the Centre d'Histoire de Sciences Po and editor in chief of La Vie des Idées, an online magazine. He is the author of Les Batailles de l'impôt: Consentement et résistances de 1789 à nos jours (2011) and a coeditor, with Patrick Boucheron, et al, of Histoire mondiale de la France (published in English in 2019 as France in the World) and, with Nicolas Barreyre, of A World of Public Debts: A Political History (2020).
