Chapter Chapter 4 in The Apprentice Movement in the Federal Republic of Germany, 2025, pp 35-65 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter describes the wider attributes of the Apprentice Movement: its timing and scale, the goals of its activists, and the actions they undertook. Section 4.1 describes the sequence of events, their scale, and the methods used. The second section considers the goals of activists, with particular attention to the balance between better training and higher pay. The final section looks at the role of strikes. The movement was widely dispersed, heterogeneous, and decentralised. An account of it is therefore unavoidably oriented towards the locations for which detailed accounts are available, principally Hamburg and Essen.
