Despite his role as central organizer of the “Revolutionary Stewards,’ and the impact of the mass strikes they led between 1916 and 1918, today Richard Müller is largely unknown. Using new archival sources and abandoning the traditional focus on political parties in the German revolution, Hoffrogge uses this biography to zoom in on working-class politics on the shop floor.
