''''Workers in Hard Times: A Long View of Economic Crises'' examines the history of economic depressions, recessions, and crises in North America, New Zealand, Australia, parts of Europe and Asia, and worker responses to them. At its core lie the issues of agency and structure, culture and conditioning. The well-written essays will appeal to those interested in past and present responses to economic troubles and ways out of the current global recession.''--Neville Kirk, author of ''Labour and the Politics of Empire: Britain and Australia 1900 to the Present''
