A modern descendant of medieval guilds is the professional association or trade union. These organizations support the interests of their members, provide training and resources, and advocate for workplace rights, much like guilds did for craftsmen and tradespeople in the Middle Ages. They help establish standards, promote professional development, and foster a sense of community among members.
Consumer and Worker Protection are the types of crafts that the guilds formed.

Among the oldest guilds were those for stone masons and glass makers. But there were guilds of all sorts, and in guild oriented cities, many or most jobs were involved in the guild structure. There were carpenters' guilds and bakers' guilds and cobblers' guilds. There were even guilds that were entirely female, such as the silk guilds of Paris and Cologne. In time, there were also merchant guilds, in addition to craft guilds. Please use the link below for more information.
A group of craft workers is often referred to as a "guild." Historically, guilds were formed to protect the interests of artisans and tradespeople, regulating their crafts and promoting standards. In contemporary contexts, similar groups may be called cooperatives, collectives, or associations, depending on their structure and purpose.
At the beginning of the 17th century, the three main guilds in the context of European trade and commerce were typically the Merchant Guilds, Craft Guilds, and Religious Guilds. Merchant Guilds focused on trade and commerce, Craft Guilds represented various skilled trades and crafts, while Religious Guilds were associated with spiritual and charitable activities. These guilds often experienced divisions based on economic interests, political power, and social status, leading to conflicts and changes in their structures and influence.
