working-class history

Working-class history examines the experiences, struggles, and contributions of everyday laborers and common people, rather than just leaders or elites. It explores how workers' lives have been affected by economic changes, industrialization, and social movements, often highlighting issues like workers’ rights, wages, and community struggles. This perspective aims to provide a fuller understanding of history by emphasizing the significance of ordinary individuals, their collective efforts for better conditions, and their impact on shaping societies and policies over time.
