This book examines the formation of alliances and collaborative efforts between social movements and organised labour, groups increasingly recognized for their impact on democratic capitalism. The chapters offer a balanced perspective, blending theoretical insights with empirical evidence on the political, social, and economic factors driving shifts in motivation and novel forms of collective action. Contributors move beyond traditional focuses on unions, movements, crises, or protests, instead concentrating on actors who bridge distinct social categories. The analysis delves into the values and motives underpinning collective action, as well as the structural, strategic, and inter-organizational dynamics involved.
