Frader''s focus on the making of the rural proletariat takes the study of class formation out of the towns and cities and into the countryside. She describes the formation of an agricultural wage-earning class, and discusses how socialism and a revolutionary syndicalist labor movement together forged working-class identity. In this study, Laura Levine Frader explains how left-wing politics and labor radicalism in the Aude emerged from the economic and social transformation of rural society between 18. Agricultural workers joined labor unions, the Socialist party established a base among peasant vinegrowers, and the largest peasant uprising of twentieth-century France, the great vinegrowers'' revolt of 1907, shook the entire south with massive demonstrations. In the first decade of the twentieth century, the sleepy vineyard towns of the Aude department of southern France exploded with strikes and protests.
