Workers of the World: Growth, Change, and Rebellion

Workers of the World: Growth, Change, and Rebellion The working class of the twenty-first century is a class in formation, as one would expect in a world where capitalism has only recently become universal. At the same time, Marx himself reminded us long ago, in speaking of the development of classes in England where they were “most classically developed,” that “even here, though, this class articulation does not emerge in pure form.” 1 The working class, of course, is much broader than those who are employed at any one time. Relying only on workforce figures obscures important aspects of the broader working-class life, including its reproduction. Nevertheless, those in and out of employment form the core of the working class, once seen as a male domain but today nearly half composed of women. Furthermore, both space and research limitations dictate that this article will focus on the employed and near-employed sections of this global class. With these caveats in mind, we

BOOKS Hagiographer of the Habsburgs

by Martyn Rady (Allen Lane, £30) WHEN I was at school longer ago than I care to remember the history I learned was essentially one of kings and queens, followed by British prime ministers and Acts of Parliament. It was not just a top-down history, it was a top history, full stop. The underlings, working people who made real history, were hardly mentioned. I thought that view of history had been discarded with the cane and blackboards, but on reading The Habsburgs by Martyn Rady, professor of central European history at University College, London, I find that I am wrong. The Habsburgs were the first rulers whose power encompassed the world.
