Together, the essays demonstrate how connections, interactions, and competition between different movements, networks, and organisations impacted the historical development of international, regional, and local labour activisms. Authors take up more informal—even transgressive—activist networks and repertoires, spotlight the work of once-marginalised figures, and address the 'nested' nature of local, national, inter-imperial, and postcolonial spaces in and across world regions. Alongside themes such as migration policies, gender (in)equality, peace movements, and anti-racist activism that have been absent from or sidelined in labour history, classic themes of transnational labour activism, such as labour rights, occupational safety, and workplace discrimination appear in a new light.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"TextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\" data-contrast=\"none\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003eChapter 4 is available \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003eopen access\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003e under a Creative Commons Attribution-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SpellingErrorV2Themed SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003eNonCommercial\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SpellingErrorV2Themed SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003eNoDerivatives\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003e 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"TextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW176176421 BCX8\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"EOP SCXW176176421 BCX8\" data-ccp-props=\"{}\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFrancesca Piana\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e is a historian of European and international history and the author of \u003cem\u003eHumanitarian Protection for Prisoners of War and Refugees in the Long Aftermath of the First World War\u003c\/em\u003e (2024).
