The protests to defend collective bargaining rights were militant and practically unheard of in this era of declining union power. Nearly forty years of neoliberalism and the most severe economic crisis since the Great Depression have battered the labor movement, and workers have been largely complacent in the face of stagnant wages, slashed benefits and services, widening unemployment, and growing inequality. That is, until now.Labor movementWisconsinHistory21st centuryLabor unionsWisconsinHistory21st centuryWorking classUnited StatesSocial conditionsLabor movementHistoryLabor unionsHistoryWorking classSocial conditions.331.89/309775Yates Michael1946-1530518MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789948503321Wisconsin uprising3775596UNINA
