Download or read book Women, Work, and Protest written by Ruth Milkman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As paid work becomes increasingly central in women’s lives, the history of their labor struggles assumes more and more importance. This volume represents the best of the new feminist scholarship in twentieth-century U.S. women’s labor history. Fourteen original essays illuminate the complex relationship between gender, consciousness and working-class activism, and deepen historical understanding of the contradictory legacy of trade unionism for women workers. The contributors take up a wide range of specific subjects, and write from diverse theoretical perspectives. Some of the essays are case studies of women’s participation in individual unions, organizing efforts, or strikes; others examine broader themes in women’s labor history, focusing on a specific time period; and still others explore the situation of particular categories of women workers over a longer time span. This collection extends the scope of current research and interpretation in women’s labor history, both conceptually and in terms of periodization – emphasis is placed on the post-World War I period where the literature is sparse. This book will be valuable for scholars, students and general readers alike.

Download or read book The Sex of Class written by Dorothy Sue Cobble and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women now comprise the majority of the working class. Yet this fundamental transformation has gone largely unnoticed. This book is about how the sex of workers matters in understanding the jobs they do, the problems they face at work, and the new labor movements they are creating in the United States and globally. In The Sex of Class, twenty prominent scholars, labor leaders, and policy analysts look at the implication of this "sexual revolution" for labor policy and practice. In clear, crisp prose, The Sex of Class introduces readers to some of the most vibrant and forward-thinking social movements of our era: the clerical worker protests of the 1970s; the emergence of gay rights on the auto shop floor; the upsurge of union organizing in service jobs; worker centers and community unions of immigrant women; successful campaigns for paid family leave and work redesign; and innovative labor NGOs, cross-border alliances, and global labor federations. The Sex of Class reveals the animating ideas and the innovative strategies put into practice by the female leaders of the twenty-first-century social justice movement. The contributors to this book offer new ideas for how government can help reduce class and sex inequalities; they assess the status of women and sexual minorities within the traditional labor movement; and they provide inspiring case studies of how women workers and their allies are inventing new forms of worker representation and power.

Book Synopsis Labor Education for Women Workers by : Barbara M. Wertheimer
Download or read book Labor Education for Women Workers written by Barbara M. Wertheimer and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Labor Education for Women Workers was published in 1981, a year that marked a significant shift in labor-movement history. This essential text raised awareness of the importance of creating space for women workers to have solid labor education and filled a major gap in the literature on labor education with an accessible yet scholarly guide. This happened to be the first year of Ronald Reagan's first term as president. His administration broke the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization strike and signaled the beginnings of an ensuing backlash against progressive social movements and a shift towards regressive policies, forcing the labor movement to go on the defensive. Similar to 1981, Labor Education's reissue comes during yet another a tumultuous shift in the nation's landscape. Following the election of Donald Trump, on Inauguration Day, women of color called for and led the largest global women's march in history. Just before the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the Janus v. American Federation of State, Municipal, and County Employees case, women workers and trade unionists took to the streets for the National Working People's Day of Action to protest a ruling that would severely restrict the ability of public-sector unions to collect dues from union members. Needless to say, when more than half of the states have Right to Work laws, the labor movement is still in a defensive position. New generations bring about new forms of resistance and organizing, but there is no substitute for coming together in women-only spaces to share expertise and challenges and to strategize targeted methods for improving worker-justice organizations and the world of work for women. Barbara Wertheimer provided us with a foundational that can support and sustain the resistance in this moment.
