Italian Labor Movement
The Italian Labor Movement refers to the collective efforts of workers in Italy to improve their working conditions, wages, and rights. It began in the late 19th century, influenced by industrialization and the rise of socialist ideas. Workers organized into unions and political parties to advocate for labor rights, leading to significant reforms over the years.
Key events in the movement include the establishment of the Italian Socialist Party in 1892 and the General Confederation of Italian Labor (CGIL) in 1944. The movement has played a crucial role in shaping labor laws and social policies in Italy, promoting solidarity among workers across various sectors.
