General Union
A general union is a trade union (called ''labor union'' in American English) which represents workers from all industries and companies, rather than just one organisation or a particular sector, as in a craft union or industrial union. A general union differs from a union federation or trades council in that its members are individuals, not unions. The creation of general unions, from the early nineteenth century in the United Kingdom and somewhat later elsewhere, occurred around the same time as efforts began to unionise workers in new industries, in particular those where employment could be irregular. Proponents of general unions claim that their broader range of members allows more opportunities for solidarity action and better coordination in general strikes and the like. Detractors claim that the broader remit means they tend to be more bureaucratic and respond less effectively to events in a single industry. In the United Kingdom, general unions include the GMB and ...

National Association Of Free Swiss Employees
The National Association of Free Swiss Employees (, LFSA; ) was a general union representing workers in Switzerland. The union was established on 11 May 1919 by workers who identified with the liberal movement. Initially based in St Gallen, it relocated to Zürich in 1941. This move led it to gain members, reaching 10,000 in 1943, and 20,000 in 1974. In 1950, it led the foundation of the World Union of Liberal Trade Union Organizations. Coldrick, A. Percy and Jones, Philip. ''The international directory of the trade union movement'' New York : Facts on File, 978p.233 The union was much smaller than the Swiss Trade Union Federation (SGB), and was promoted as an alternative to it by some employers. It was a party to several major collective agreements, along with the SGB. Membership peaked at 23,000 in 1983, and then began to fall. By 1997, it had 17,015 members, of whom 17% worked in the metal industry, 15% in construction, 10% in primary industries, 7% in textiles and cloth ...

Christian National Union Confederation
The Christian National Union Confederation (, CNG; ) was a trade union federation bringing together Christian democratic trade unions in Switzerland. History The federation was founded in 1907, as the Christian Social Union Federation of Switzerland, with about 4,500 members. After almost collapsing, it began co-operating with the Swiss Trade Union Federation during World War I, but withdrew this in 1918 due to it opposition to the possibility of a general strike. It spread into Romandy from 1916, and Ticino from 1918. In 1921, it renamed itself as the CNG, and grew steadily, reaching 36,000 members by 1941, 84,000 in 1961, and peaking at 116,000 in 1990. While the federation was open to all Christians, the vast majority of members were Catholics, with some Protestants instead forming the Swiss Association of Protestant Workers. During the 1990s, the federation's affiliates rapidly lost members, and by 1997, it was down to 93,100. In 2002, it merged with the Confederation of S ...

Economists refer to a system or network that allows trade as a market (economics), market. Traders generally negotiate through a medium of credit or exchange, such as money. Though some economists characterize barter (i.e. trading things without the use of money) as an early form of trade, History of money#Emergence of money, money was invented before written history began. Consequently, any story of how money first developed is mostly based on conjecture and logical inference.
