Brown. 520 The years between 1930 and 1979 witnessed a period of intense labor activity in Latin America as workers participated in strikes, unionization efforts, and populist and revolutionary movements. The ten original essay in this volume examine sugar mill seizures in Cuba, oil nationalization and railway strikes in Mexico, the attempted revolution in Guatemala, railway nationalization and Peronism in Argentina, Brazil's textile strikes, the Bolivian revolution of 1952, Peru's copper strikes, and copper nationalization in Chile - all important national events in which industrial laborers played critical roles. Demonstrating an illuminating, bottom-up approach to Latin American labor history, these essays investigate the everyday acts through which workers attempted to assert more control over the work process and thereby add dignity to their lives. Working together, they were able to bring shop floor struggles to public attention and - at certain critical junctures - to influence events on a national scale. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1900 - 1999|2fast 650 0 Working class|xPolitical activity|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85073656|zLatin America.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85074879-781 650 0 Railroads|xEmployees|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85110958|xPolitical activity|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002011434|zLatin America.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85074879-781 650 0 Miners|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85085603 |xPolitical activity|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002011434|zLatin America.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85074879-781 650 0 Strikes and lockouts|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85128731|zLatin America|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85074879-781|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Industrial relations|zLatin America|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008123547|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 7 Working class|xPolitical activity.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1180500 650 7 Railroads|xEmployees|xPolitical activity.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1088929 650 7 Railroads|xEmployees.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1088904 650 7 Miners|xPolitical activity.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1022511 650 7 Miners.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1022485 650 7 Strikes and lockouts.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1135030 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Industrial relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 971609 651 7 Latin America.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1245945 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Brown, Jonathan C.|q(Jonathan Charles),|d1942-|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78016625 776 08 |iPrint version:|tWorkers' control in Latin America, 1930- 1979.|dChapel Hill, N.C. : University of North Carolina Press, ©1997|z0807823627|w(DLC) 97001880 |w(OCoLC)36372334 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=13955|zOnline eBook.
