This is the Dataverse with the published datasets of the HUB Global Labour Conflicts project. This dataverse is maintained by the International Institute of Social History (IISG) (https://iisg.amsterdam/en) on behalf of the network. Any questions or suggestions can be addressed to ...

The datasets are grouped into so-called "Dataverses" of different levels. To see those levels, click on the tick box "Dataverses" on the left panel.

You will see 5 dataverses:
  • Remarkable Strikes: These are qualitative accounts of a few selected, exceptional historical strikes.
  • Global Labour Conflicts: Contains the aggregated dataset on labour conflicts for more than 250 countries.
  • Micro Labour Conflicts: Datasets with more detailed accounts of specific (periods of) labour disputes.
  • Aggregate data: Datasets with aggregated data per country for certain time periods.
  • National Labour Conflicts: Datasets with aggregated data per country for certain time periods.

    For researchers with a focus on The Netherlands, the main dataset of interest is "Labour Conflicts in the Netherlands, 1372-2019" (https://hdl.handle.net/10622/APNT4U). This dataset has been converted to linked open data. The converted version can be queried using a sparql endpoint here: https://druid.datalegend.net/IISG/Labourconflicts. For users who are not able to query sparql directly, we provide a "Data story" with a simpler way to enter query terms. There are two data stories for the Dutch dataset:
  • A data story where you can get an overview of the data model: data story: data-model
  • A data story where you can get insights into the data itself, with the most common queries (per year, occupation, place, etc.): data story: dataset queries
