Abstract
ABSTRACT The Czechoslovak crisis of 1968 resulted in the birth of a new phenomenon within Spanish communism. The criticism of the USSR, together with the gradual ideological and tactical moderation of the Communist Party of Spain, provoked the irruption of an internal dissidence whose common nexus was to vindicate the orthodoxy of identity. They were misnamed ‘pro-Soviets’ for their support of socialist camp. A particularly workerist current which developed its repertoires of socialization within the Comisiones Obreras trade union in a preeminent way. This article analyzes the trajectory of their trade union action throughout the 1970s and 1980s. For this purpose, and based on oral and newspaper sources, we examine their ideas, representations and symbols within this important social movement.
期刊介绍:
Labor History is the pre-eminent journal for historical scholarship on labor. It is thoroughly ecumenical in its approach and showcases the work of labor historians, industrial relations scholars, labor economists, political scientists, sociologists, social movement theorists, business scholars and all others who write about labor issues. Labor History is also committed to geographical and chronological breadth. It publishes work on labor in the US and all other areas of the world. It is concerned with questions of labor in every time period, from the eighteenth century to contemporary events. Labor History provides a forum for all labor scholars, thus helping to bind together a large but fragmented area of study. By embracing all disciplines, time frames and locales, Labor History is the flagship journal of the entire field. All research articles published in the journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.
