Dear Folks—<br>
<br>
Please excuse this mass mailing, but I wanted to get the word out—and<br>
apologies in advance if you get this more than once!<br>
<br>
I just brought out an edited collected titled “Building Global Labor<br>
Solidarity in a Time of Accelerating Globalization” (Chicago: Haymarket<br>
Books, April 2016). A flier is attached below. This is a collection,<br>
with contributions from David Bacon, Bruno Dobrusin, Jenny<br>
Jungehuelsing, Katherine Nastovski, Timothy Ryan, Kim Scipes and Michael<br>
Zweig. There simply is nothing out like it.<br>
We have chapters on theorizing global labor solidarity, building<br>
international labor solidarity in Canada in the 1970s and ‘80s,<br>
exploratory research on using migrant experiences to build cross-border<br>
solidarity, creating continental-wide labor solidarity in Latin America<br>
against the growing “Commodes Consensus,” AFL-CIO support for emerging<br>
labor organizations in Bangladesh, examining the KMU labor center of the<br>
Philippines to see what we can learn from their experiences,<br>
cross-border solidarity across the US-Mexico border, and a proposal for<br>
a new foreign policy for the AFL-CIO.<br>
<br>
I want to let you know about the book, and encourage you to get it. But<br>
I’d also like to ask that you share this message with your networks, and<br>
encourage people to share this message with their networks. I want to<br>
get this out to the widest range of people possible.<br>
<br>
You can order directly from <a href="http://haymarketbooks.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">haymarketbooks.com</a><br>
<<a href="http://haymarketbooks.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://haymarketbooks.com</a>> , and the book is listed under their “labor<br>
movement” category. It lists for US $19. You can also get it from<br>
Amazon, but Amazon says the book won’t be out until July 12—we’re trying<br>
to get them to change that, but no luck yet! Pre-orders from them are<br>
cheaper.<br>
<br>
Also, if you teach at a college or university, please ask your library<br>
to order the book. Also, if you’re a member of a labor or related<br>
organization, please ask them to publicize the book.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any help you can give. I’m open to doing radio<br>
interviews if anyone is interested, and can do book signings if not too<br>
distant from Chicago.<br>
<br>
Would love to hear what you think once you’ve read it.<br>
<br>
<br>
In global labor solidarity—<br>
