At first, this article analyses discussions among workers in the city of Cartagena in relation to the new ideas that were in vogue (socialism and communism), also the reaction to the measures implemented by Liberal governments (1930-1945) in labor matters. In the second place, major protests by transport workers (Railway and dock workers) are disclosed, what motivations they had, how they were developed and what impact they had in the Caribbean region.
