Save the date: June 6-8, 2013 in New York City, for the national conference of the Labor and Working-Class History Association (LAWCHA.)
A call for proposals will be circulated in the near future–we welcome proposals for panels, plenary sessions, workshops, and roundtables that reflect the breadth and range of current work in labor history. Presentations on current issues facing workers and the labor movement, as well as transnational and comparative perspectives are welcome.
