English translation:arena of social protest

Explanation:
We are witnessing the establishment of the have-nots on the social protest scene

We are witnessing the establishment of the have-nots in the arena of social protest

I quite liked "social protest scene" but "arena" sounds much more serious.

depending on the context of the text to be translated "campaigns for social rights" could replace "social protest"

Actually, seieng as the text is about Trade Unions, "campaigns for social rights" might well be more appropriate
