Description
One of a series of historical encyclopedias on organized labor throughout the world, this volume provides information on the evolution of trade unionism in Europe in 31 national chapters and an additional chapter on European regional organizations. Each chapter includes an introduction, a short bibliography, and individual union profiles. Profiles have been included for all important national trade union federations; coverage has been provided for the most significant ideological and political variants; and examples have been included for the major national industries. Profiles include both defunct and existing organizations, and coverage illustrates developments affecting white-collar workers, women, and religious or national minorities.

Reviews:
-This latest work on organized labor fills a gap in the literature of labor history. The format provides for a history of the labor movement in each of 31 European countries, including members of the former Eastern Bloc, with a bibliography with many, if not most, of the sources in the native language. Each of the entries is followed by a list of major labor unions with descriptions varying in length from one sentence to two pages. Academic contributors from over 20 countries wrote the scholarly entries. . . . A search . . . for dictionaries and encyclopedias on European trade unions found nothing remotely near this title in English. . . . Highly recommended. —Library Journal
-This valuable reference work is a collection of essays by various authors describing European labor unions. —Choice
