Abstract
This collection of articles on the international labor studies is drawn from a year of seminar activities and a conference held in Spring 1980 at the Center for Developing Areas at McGill University in Montreal. The studies are linked by their common approach to understanding the struggles of the working poor usually unorganized laboring people from Third World countries. This approach consciously rejected regional linguistic and disciplinary barriers to focus on the unity of the labor phenomenon between 1 country and another. The book has been divided into 4 parts: 1) Theoretical Perspectives 2) Class Formation and the Movement 3) The International Division of and 4) A Concluding Bibliography. Cohens opening essay Theorizing International Labour acts as an introduction to the book situates the essays in a wider field and attempts to explain the distinctiveness of what he calls the new international labour studies.
