Immigrant Women

The Pierre Bance collection is nearly 45 linear metres long. It concerns his activities as an Associate Professor in Labour Law, as a publisher and as an activist in the Confédération nationale du travail (CNT). The collection includes in particular a vast series of posters related to Pierre Bance’s Trade Union activities. It also contains a large library of Labour Law manuals and periodicals published by French and Spanish anarchist groups and Unions. Women are also present in the collection, although rarely, and one section is dedicated to women migrants. The concept of « migrant workers » includes women working in a country of which they are not nationals. The most documented cases in the collections held at the Archives Nationales du Monde du Travail feature foreigners who have worked in France.
