This book also illustrates the ways in which the capitalist classes in Canada, Mexico, and the United States used free-trade agreements to consolidate their agendas and organize themselves continentally. The failure of traditional labor responses to stop the continental offensive being waged by big business has led workers and unions to explore new strategies of struggle and organization, pointing to the beginnings of a continental labor movement across North America. The battle for the future of North America has begun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Roman, Edur Velasco Arregui\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1629630950\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781629630953\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e PM Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Richard Roman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989414412543,"sku":"9781629630953","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_86893e81-729c-4069-96ab-d8763c47f5a9.jpg?v=1683299362","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/continental-crucible-richard-roman-9781629630953","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
