Abstract:
The achievements of the labor movement in the Caribbean are generally historicized without highlighting the contribution of labor colleges to the function and survivability of trade unions. For more than fifty years, labor colleges have played a critical role in developing the knowledge and skill sets of union members who had an interest in labor studies. Many will attribute the heydays of the Caribbean labor movement in the mid-1900s to the intellectual thrust given to the trade union movement by labor colleges. During this period, trade unions relied heavily on labor colleges for intellectua

Abstract:
This project traces the reaction of the British labour movement (pressure groups; political parties; and trade unions) to the strikes, riots, and 'disturbances' in St Lucia, St Vincent, British Honduras, Trinidad, Barbados, British Guiana, St Kitts, and Jamaica. There were deep-seated differences as between Leninists views on imperialism; and social democrats who viewed colonialism as acceptable if reformed with the right to set up trade unions, to bargain collectively, to strike, and to have state-backed labour standards. Plantation economics dominated these lands, and there are case studies

Abstract:
The 1865 Morant Bay Rebellion in Jamaica has generally been interpreted as a struggle between the post-emancipation Black peasantry and the white colonial government, which led to a violent confrontation, military suppression, and the demise of the Jamaican House of Assembly in favor of direct Crown Colony rule. Yet, the archival record shows other more complex currents that were also at play, including multi-racial, cross-class alliances, and strong conflicts over local politics, corruption, and labor rights. This article focuses on a little noted aspect of the events of 1865: the arrest for

Abstract:
This article examines the interactions between the British labour movement and those West Indian workers, trade-unionists, and socialists involved in the wave of strikes and riots that engulfed the region from 1934 to 1939. It focuses on the English-speaking Caribbean, covering eight countries – St Lucia, St Vincent, British Honduras, Trinidad, Barbados, British Guiana, St Kitts, and Jamaica. The disputes are examined through local contemporary reports and subsequent studies. The labour movement in the UK, meanwhile, was focused on the ravages of mass unemployment, the rise of fascism, wars in

Abstract:
Recent critiques by scholars conducting research on the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program and labour geographers assert that there has been a lack of emphasis in the academic literature on the relevance of the formal workplace for developing an understanding of the social relations between capital and labour. In this article, I address these critiques through an empirical examination of workplace dynamics on two small-scale tobacco farms in Delhi, Ontario, Canada. My analysis draws upon original empirical evidence from interviews with three Mexican and nine Jamaican workers, two union repr

Abstract:
Analysis of the current situation. Higher education institutions in Ukraine are in a competitive environment, and in a constant struggle for the best students, researchers, grants, and other budgetary and extra-budgetary funding. After all, funding for higher education in Ukraine is much lower than in European countries. Currently, due to the war in the country, many Ukrainians have gained access to education in the European Union, so more and more HEIs are developing a scientific component as an alternative source of replacing the loss of applicants, including foreign ones, who were lost due

Abstract:
In 1983, the arrest of Noureddin Kianouri, the first secretary of the Tudeh Party of Iran came as a shock to the international community. In a letter of condemnation, communist parties from Indonesia to Jamaica pledged solidarity with their Iranian comrades. The optimism initially brought by the 1979 revolution was severely reversed and the suppression of the Iranian Left by the Islamic government was regarded as an attack on the international Left. A significant voice of opposition came from Britain, with the Communist party of Great Britain (CPGB), the British Labor party, the trade unions a

Abstract:
Focusing on Latin America and the Caribbean, this article explores the role of domestic workers' organizations in labour standards enforcement. Drawing on qualitative data, we examine the case of the Jamaica Household Workers' Union in the wake of Jamaica's ratification of the ILO Domestic Workers Convention, 2011 (No. 189). Findings indicate that the Union participates directly and indirectly in enforcement. While not a substitute for state‐led enforcement, the case study illustrates the potential of a worker‐centred, participatory approach to enforcement in the domestic work sector and sugge
