Produktbeschreibung
Between 1934 and 1939 a wave of violent strikes and riots swept across the Caribbean. Roger Seifert explores how British political parties, trade unions, and pressure groups of the labour movement responded to these colonial struggles.
Using diverse primary sources, Seifert shows similarities between these disputes and solidarity (or otherwise) with Caribbean workers. The book explores deep ideological divisions on labour, colonialism, and political rights within the British Left, which still shape politics today.
A timely study of racism, empire, and class, this is essential reading for anyone interested in labour history, trade unionism, and global inequality.
