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.
