Die SSLH schreibt über sich:
Founded in 1960, the Society is the UK's principal organisation dedicated to the study of labour history, organising meetings and conferences, representing the interests of labour history and labour historians in a number of for a, and publishing the highly-regarded journal Labour History Review.
Since 1960 Labour History Review has explored the working lives and
politics of 'ordinary' people, and has played a key role in redefining
social and political history. The emphasis is on British labour history,
though the journal also includes comparative and international studies.
The editors welcome contributions which dig deeper within the
traditional subject matter of labour history, but they are also keen to
expand the parameters of the subject and the range of approaches taken
to it. Of particular interest are articles which engage with issues of
gender and ethnicity or race, as well as class.
