Produktbeschreibung

One of the leading figures of the trend towards transnational history is Professor Marcel van der Linden, who has contributed much to the debate on cross-border processes and comparisons. This volume makes available in English a collection of twelve of his most important essays on the theme of transnational labour history. Previously published in a range of journals and volumes, this book brings them together in a single convenient collection, together with a new introduction and bibliography. As such, this work will undoubtedly provide an invaluable resource for all students of European labour history.
