Comrades and cousins

"In this ambitious, challenging and innovative study, Neville Kirk focuses on organised labour's attitudes and practices towards class, race and politics in Britain, Australia and the USA during an earlier period of globalization and imperialism, from the 1880s to 1914." "This book advances our knowledge of labour and popular attitudes in new and significant ways and will appeal to all those interested in the past, present and future of the labour movement and other progressive causes in an increasingly globalized context."--Jacket.
