The French Federation of Book Workers (French: Fédération française des travailleurs du livre, FFTL) was a trade union representing printing workers in France.
Initially, it struggled, but under the leadership of Auguste Keufer, it became centralised and espoused reformist social democracy.
In 1895, it was one of the main founding affiliates of the General Confederation of Labour (CGT).
[1] After World War II, the union had many closed shop agreements, and few members left to join the Workers' Force-affiliated Book Federation.
This was a unique situation, as the CGT was aligned with the French Communist Party, and its other affiliates were linked with the World Federation of Trade Unions, and it led to the IGF being suspended from the ICFTU.
