Labour Movements and Labour-Based Political Currents

Labour movements and political currents rooted in organized labour. An entry belongs here when its cited source describes a movement that organizes workers to win rights, wages or political power, or a political current that grew from such organizing. The labour movement in general covers the trade unions and labour parties that sought workers' rights and representation, and Labour Zionism was the current of the Zionist movement that combined the goal of a Jewish state with socialist principles and labour organization. The group lets a reader compare a general labour movement with a labour current tied to a specific national cause.
