Origins and Rise of Labor Unions Through History
A review traces labor organization from medieval guilds to modern unions. It cites 1648 shoemaker guilds in Massachusetts, 1792 Philadelphia craft unions, and Philadelphia Mechanics Union of Trade Associations in 1827. European modernism begins in Britain during the eighteenth century. AFL membership is noted for 1987 figures and 1937 estimates for CIO. The oldest sitdown strike dates to 1555 Lyons, with the first American sitdown at General Electric Schenectady in 1908, revived in Akron in 1934.
