Solidarity in Action: Trade Unions and the Palestinian Cause (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798289136923)

Solidarity in Action: Trade Unions and the Palestinian Cause charts the political and moral journey of the British labour movement in its relationship with Palestine. From early silence and missteps to increasing engagement and support, this book explores how trade unions came to confront one of the most pressing international justice issues of our time.

Drawing on historical research, union motions, political context, and grassroots voices, Sam Cowlishaw offers a focused look at the evolving stance of British unions, not just in response to global headlines, but as a reflection of deeper struggles around solidarity, imperialism, and working-class conscience.

This is not a general history of the Middle East, nor a detached policy overview. It is a tribute to the power of collective action and the difficult choices faced by those who stand up for justice in the face of backlash.

Essential reading for trade unionists, activists, political educators, and anyone who believes that solidarity should not be confined by borders.
