WORCK Newsletter N° 6
Aalborg/Vienna, 10 November 2020
Dear members of the COST Action WORCK,
dear colleagues interested in the study of labour and coercion,
these are truly challenging times! Europe is in midst the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic and several European cities are confronted with terror attacks and extreme violence. The current situation makes it extremely difficult for a funding tool dedicated to connecting people through meetings, conferences and training schools to spend the granted funds.

Labor in State-Socialist Europe, 1945-1989: Contributions to a History of Work, edited by Marsha Siefert
Labor regimes under communism in East-Central Europe were complex, shifting, and ambiguous. This collection of sixteen essays offers new conceptual and empirical ways to understand their history from the end of World War II to 1989, and to think about how their experiences relate to debates about labor history, both European and global.
