Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the record of the Second Congress of the newly formed Red International of Labour Unions, a gathering of communist trade unionists. Following the economic devastation of World War I, workers' wages across Europe were slashed, the eight-hour working day was revoked and workers who protested were met with brutal state violence. This book brings together delegates who represent a wave of defiance spreading across the labour movement. The delegates debate merging their separate and often competing organizations and agree to set aside secondary disputes to form a United Front against capital and fascism. The book's record of the Congress is a valuable insight into the early years of worker self-organization, and a testament to the international workers' movement's resilience and commitment to a better future.
