About this title

Synopsis

This book delves into the tumultuous landscape of American labor relations during the early 20th century, focusing on the powerful Pennsylvania Railroad and its contentious relationship with organized labor. The author meticulously examines the company's anti-union policies, its sophisticated surveillance system, and the harsh treatment of workers who dared to challenge the status quo. Set against the backdrop of a nation grappling with industrialization and the rise of labor movements, the narrative exposes the stark power imbalance between corporations and workers. Through firsthand accounts, legal documents, and internal memos, readers are transported to a time of intense struggle, where strikes, boycotts, and legal battles were commonplace. The book delves into themes of worker exploitation, corporate power, and the fight for fair wages and safe working conditions. It raises critical questions about the role of government in mediating labor disputes and protecting the rights of workers. By shedding light on the historical context of labor relations, the book offers valuable insights into the ongoing struggle for worker justice and the enduring legacy of this pivotal era in American history.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
