Unionismo industriale e Sindacalismo [Industrial and Trade Unions]. Brooklyn: Casa ed. Lavoratori Industriali del Mondo, 1923.

Description

The title page states Giantino as the author, with no publication date; however, this pamphlet begins with an introduction by Mario De Ciampis dated 1923. Like most unionist pamphlets, this pamphlet contains the preamble of the I.W.W., and also discusses industrial and trade unionism in the U.S. and Europe.

“Giantino” was the pen name of Alibrando Giovannetti (1875–1945). In Italy, Giovannetti was secretary of the Unione Sindacalismo Industriale’s metalworkers union. A believer in non-violence, he saw peaceful occupation of factories as a substitute for insurrection. He and Armando Borghi, several of whose works are in the Collection, led one such factory occupation in Liguria in 1920.
