Starting in the early 1830s, American girls and women began to hold Old English May Day festivals, complete with maypole dances, the crowning of a May Queen, and romantic plays and pageants. These festivals accelerated in popularity after 1900 at colleges and universities across the country. An important part of the traditional college experience for many women, the celebrations played a surprisingly influential role in the Progressive reform movement. This thorough history examines the creation and development of the traditional American May Day festival. It also provides an overview of May Day celebrations at 80 specific college and universities, eight of which continue to celebrate the festival annually.

Eric Hobsbawm claimed that the international May Day, which dates back to a proclamation in 1889 by the Second International, 'is perhaps the most ambitious of labour rituals'. The first international May Day demonstrations in 1890 were widely celebrated across Europe and became the one day each year when organized labour could present its goals to the public, an eight-hour workday being the first concrete demand, shortly followed by those for improved working conditions, universal suffrage, peace among nations, and international solidarity. The May Day ritual celebration was the self-assertion and self-definition of the new labour class through class organization. Thus, it was trade unions and social democratic and socialist parties throughout Europe which took the initiative and have sustained May Day as a labour ritual to this day. Part I of this theoretically-informed volume explores how May Day demonstrations have evolved and taken different trajectories in different political contexts. Part II focuses on May Day rituals today. By comparing demonstration level data of over 2000 questionnaires from six countries, including Belgium, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK, the reader is able to gain a thorough understanding of how participants are bestowing meaning on May Day rituals. By concluding with reflections on the future of the May Day ritual in Western Europe, this ground-breaking book provides a detailed analysis of its evolution as a protest event.

How well do you know the story and origin of Labour Day? The 1st of May is widely celebrated as 'Labour Day' or 'International Workers' Day' and is a declared national public holiday in many countries. But in some European countries, the day is marked as a traditional spring holiday; marking the beginning of spring, and not as "Labour Day" or "International Workers' Day". Interestingly, in USA and Canada, the day is marked as 'Labor Day', on a different date; 1st Monday of September each year. This material carefully walks you through the whole story of Labour Day; its origin and players, and clearly paints to you the true pictures of the events that subsequently lead to the global recognition and celebration of 'Labour Day'. And it doesn't End there! It beautifully explain the difference between Labour/Labor Day and May 1 (May 1 is also referred to as May Day, and is marked in several European countries as the beginning of spring). As you continue to turn the pages, you will learn the invaluable story of the International Labour Organization, and its unrelenting effort towards promoting the agenda for decent work for all through: promotion of jobs, guaranteeing rights at work (recognition and respect for the rights of all workers), extending social protection, and promoting social dialogue between employers and workers. This book on Labour Day / Labor Day is invaluably ideal for adults and kids. Towards it end, you have a chance to tackle a trivia focusing on Labour Day related questions. This book is a must own for every home.
