This workshop took place on May 11-12, 2023. It was hosted and organized by the Balsillie School of International Affairs, University of Waterloo with funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.
Historian Wayne Thorpe details the thinking of anarcho-syndicalist Pierre Besnard (1886–1947), placing it in the context of inter-war French syndicalism, following the WWI class collaboration of the CGT, of which he had been a member and many anarchists had played leading roles.
