The Workers' Union by Flora Tristan
A nineteenth-century social reform proposal, available again“As the first political analyst to call for an international union of workers (even before Marx) and as the first to link socialism and feminism, Tristan emerges as an important figure in nineteenth-century political and social history. . . The Workers’ Union allows students of women’s history, working-class history, and European history to understand Tristan’s unique role as a bridge between the utopian and scientific socialists, as a passionate advocate of Christian humanitarianism, and as a feminist who made women’s rights a vital part of working-class programs for social reform.”
--Choice
“A revolutionary classic. . . . In France, Flora Tristan holds a position comparable to that of Mary Wollstonecraft in England and Margaret Fuller in the U.S.--as a pioneering radical feminist.”
--Industrial Worker
“The breadth of Tristan’s ideas as well as the theory and practical nature of them should make Tristan’s volumes required reading alongside the works of the more famous nineteenth-century socialists.”
--Nineteenth-Century French Studies
