Preferred term

labor movement  

Definition(s)

  • Unlike a labor union, which is an empirical reality as a bureaucratic organization, a labor movement is a conceptual, rather than a physical, category. While its components are real (labor unions), it is a construct of people's minds. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Problems; Labor Movement]
