"Originally intending a general history of organized labor in Latin America and the Caribbean, the author worried that it would never see light as a single work and so began breaking it down into separate volumes. The present work provides descriptive narratives of the organizational evolution and political and economic activities of the organized labor movements in the neighbor countries of Peru and Ecuador. Although prior eras do receive treatment, the greatest level of detail concerns the years 1948-1990." - Reference & Research Book News
