Published for the exhibition at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid during the annual PhotoEspaña festival.

Covering the Interwar period from the American Photo League and Farm Security Administration to images produced during the Weimar Republic in Germany and the early Stalinist years of the Soviet Union, along with lesser-known worker-related photographic movements across Europe.
