This book, the collaboration of nine labour historians, shows that the unrest was both more diverse and more widespread across the country than is generally believed.The authors clarify what happened in working-class Canada at the end of the war and situate 'the workers' revolt' within the larger structure of Canadian social, economic, and political history. They argue that, despite a national pattern, the upsurge of protest took different courses and faced different obstacles in each region of the country. Their essays shed light on the extent of the revolt nationally while retaining a sensitivity to regional distinctiveness.Drawing on the approaches of social history, this study moves beyond the history of the strike and union organization that characterizes conventional labour history, and re-examines what was once called the 'western revolt.' The Workers' Revolt in Canada combines fresh archival research with a great body of secondary literature on the subject to produce a compelling new synthesis, which will be of great use to teachers and of interest to economists, sociologists, and historians. 606 $aLabor disputes$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aStrikes and lockouts$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aLabor movement$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWorking class$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLabor disputes$xHistory 615 0$aStrikes and lockouts$xHistory 615 0$aLabor movement$xHistory 615 0$aWorking class$xHistory 676 $a331.89297109041 702 $aHeron$b Craig 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456188203321 996 $aThe workers' revolt in Canada, 1917-1925$92479075 997 $aUNINA
