About this episode
Industrial revolution in Europe, developed quickly in mid 1800's. So did in Spain, claiming and bringing unexisting rights to labor hands. Things changed not so rapidly, but firmly when Unions started to defend those deserved rights to protect people working for corporations and big patrons.
May 1st is a National Holiday when 90% of businesses are closed in commemoration of those workers who fought for the future generations' rights.
Listening to Fran and Jorge in this chapter, you will learn the evolution from then until now, how it is compared with North America, and today's situation in Spain about those rights.
With the hope you enjoy this bit of information, they will be back next week with another interesting topic.
Happy listening!
