Histoire du syndicalisme chrétien international
Author: Patrick Pasture
Publisher: Editions L'Harmattan
ISBN: 2738483062
Category : Catholic labor unions
Languages : fr
Pages : 482
Book Description
" On ne peut que craindre de voir le conflit espagnol se terminer par la victoire d'un des deux partis. " Telle est la position - dont l'actualité n'échappera à personne - de la Confédération Internationale des Syndicats Chrétiens (CISC) en 1937, tandis que des militants socialistes et républicains venant de toute l'Europe rejoignent les Brigades internationales et que les évêques espagnols, quant à eux, appellent à une croisade contre le Front populaire. Cette position indépendante caractérise le mouvement syndical chrétien qui depuis sa naissance à la fin du XIXe siècle semble être à la recherche d'une " troisième voie ". Celle-ci se situe d'abord entre le libéralisme capitaliste d'une part et le socialisme de l'autre, mais pendant l'entre-deux-guerres elle se distingue également fortement du fascisme. Après 1945, les syndicats chrétiens, malgré leur attachement aux valeurs occidentales, refusent la logique de la Guerre froide qui scinde le monde en deux. Et, à nouveau, l'internationale chrétienne creuse son propre chemin, s'orientant de plus en plus vers le Tiers-monde. Ce choix mène à une pénible mais grande aventure politique et intellectuelle, qui aboutit, en 1968, à la métamorphose d'un mouvement chrétien et européen en un mouvement tiers-mondiste.

Liberal Workers of the World, Unite?
Author: Magaly Rodriguez Garcia
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9783034301121
Category : Labor unions
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
The history of international free trade union organisations during the first two decades of the Cold War is an important but often neglected aspect of the development of post-war labour and liberalism. In this path-breaking book, Rodríguez García fills this void in the historical literature by offering a comparative analysis of two cases, the European Regional Organisation (ERO) and the Inter-American Regional Workers' Organisation (ORIT), which were created in the early 1950s as regional branches of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU). The author employs the term 'labour liberalism' to describe their wide variety of functions. She argues that social democratic and reformist trade unions, which made up the bulk of ICFTU members, were fundamentally shaped by liberal values, even while calling for the active participation of organised labour in the planning and implementation of projects promoting liberal democracy and socio-economic development at home and abroad. By placing international free trade unionism centre stage, this book adds significantly to our understanding of post-war labour and liberalism.

Globalization and the Politics of Resistance
Author: B. Gills
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230519172
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
The paradox of 'globalization' is that it both weakens and activates social forces of resistance. This book establishes the centrality of 'the political' in our understanding of globalization and explores the new 'strategies of resistance' emerging on local, national, regional and global scales. Its impressively wide-ranging set of contributors engage in re-thinking what practices now constitute viable political strategies in the world economy, focusing on popular responses to neoliberal globalization and the rearticulation of society, politics and the state.

The Amsterdam International
Author: Geert Van Goethem
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351147749
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
This book charts the turbulent history of the International Federation of Trade Unions (IFTU) from its foundation in 1913, to its dissolution in 1945. Established to protect and advance the interests of workers of all countries and to further international solidarity, the IFTU from the outset was beset by difficulties. Within a year the First World War split the fledgling organisation, underlining national interests and creating resentment between some of the most powerful union interests. Although these differences were patched up after the end of hostilities, the Revolution in Russia and rise of Soviet Communism, with own aspirations to leadership of international labour, soon created new tensions within the IFTU.

Ethnic Conflict, Tribal Politics
Author: Kenneth Christie
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000143988
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
There is an urgent need for a book which combines the approaches of political science/sociology and history and particularly comparative politics with ethnic studies. There are currently many rapid and significant changes taking place in the world political map in terms of ethnic conflict. How do we explain these changes? How do we analyse them? How can we compare them? How do we make sense of the different ethnic conflicts that have taken place since the end of the Cold War, in what some observers have dubbed 'the New World Order'? Few books on the market combine the diverse approaches of political science, sociology and history at any level of analysis. This work will remedy at least some of the deficiencies in the existing literature and be truly interdisciplinary in nature.
