How does collective action shape economic landscapes? This book examines the transformation of the workers' movement in Spain’s metal sector, one of the country’s most unionised industries. Having faced restructuring, delocalization, subcontracting and increasing precarity, metalworkers in Cádiz have used radical methods to challenge measures that threaten their income and industry.

Adopting a spatial approach to labour and social movements, Beltrán Roca investigates the spatial strategies employed by unions to navigate these challenges, debating whether to focus on factory-bound action or engage the broader community. In doing so, the book highlights labour militancy as a social process deeply rooted in specific cities and places, and of workers as producers of space through conflict.
