The main vehicle was the International Propaganda Committee of Transport Workers, replaced in 1930 by the International of Seamen and Harbour Workers as well as their agitation and propaganda centres, the International Harbour Bureaus and the International Seamen?s Clubs. The book scrutinizes their solidarity campaigns in support of local and national strikes as well as on their agitation against discrimination, segregation and racism within the unions, their demands to organize non-white maritime transport workers, and their calls for engagement in anti-fascist, anti-war and anti-imperialist actions. Readership: All interested in global labour history and labour radicalism and militancy, the history of the Comintern/Red International of Labour Unions/Profintern, global history of the interwar period, history of antifascism, anti-imperialism, and anti-colonialism, as well as global maritime history. 410 0$aStudies in Global Social History 517 $aGlobal Radical Waterfront 606 $aStevedores$xLabor unions 610 $aGeneral and world history 615 0$aStevedores$xLabor unions. 676 $a331.8811387109042 700 $aWeiss$b Holger$0826368 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910490028403321 996 $aGlobal Radical Waterfront$92943808 997 $aUNINA
