Synopsis:

This 2003 book analyzes the dynamics of labor movements, introducing a new database on labor unrest events worldwide.

Review: '... a thought-provoking and valuable work ...' New Left Review

'Beverly Silver has written an important, accessible and I think excellent book that contributes significantly to our understanding of workers' bargaining power under global capitalism. ... Forces of Labor is valuable as a resource on the classroom and in discussions about the relationship between globalisation and labour. However, it is potentially even more valuable for trade union members as a tool for conceptualising and understanding sources of their bargaining power with managers.' International Socialism
