Women, Work, and Politics Belgium, 1830-1914

In this study of the working women of Belgium Patricia Penn Hilden argues that the success of Belgium's industrial revolution was uniquely dependent on female labor. She examines the widespread participation of Belgian women in the labor market, and explores their role in the emergent politics of Belgium's working class, making a valuable contribution to our understanding of socialism and feminism, labor history, and the history of Belgium.Hilden, Patricia P. is the author of 'Women, Work, and Politics Belgium, 1830-1914', published 1994 under ISBN 9780198228837 and ISBN 019822883X.
