Thanks, Adam. That's really helpful. I'm sure other people also have stuff
written that it would only take an email to let us know about!
Best wishes

movements, revolution?
Dear Colleagues,
indeed, I made use of biographical methods to study trade union activism in
Eastern Europe. Besides work mentioned by Tom, you might be interested in
the articles, such as
Mrozowicki, Adam, Trawińska, Marta (2013) Women's union activism and trade
union revitalisation: the Polish experiences, Economic and Industrial
Democracy, 34(2): 269-289, DOI:
http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0143831X12442578
Mrozowicki, A., Pulignano, V., Van Hootegem, G. (2010) Worker agency and
trade union renewal: the case of Poland. Work, Employment and Society. 24
(2): 240-257.
Mrozowicki, A. (2010) The agency of the weak: ethos, reflexivity and life
strategies of Polish workers after the end of state socialism. W Archer, M.
(ed.) Conversations about Reflexivity. Routledge, pp.
167-186.
Thanks, best wishes, Adam
