Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Strike for Union' is a detailed sociological and historical analysis of the labor struggles within the American coal industry during the early 1920s. Heber Blankenhorn provides a comprehensive study of the Somerset Strike of 1922-23, examining the complex dynamics between non-union miners, organized labor, and the democratic aspirations of the working class. The work delves into the 'non-union question,' exploring the systemic barriers that prevented collective bargaining and the profound social consequences of industrial conflict in the coal fields.Blankenhorn's record serves as both an investigative report and a philosophical inquiry into the nature of democratic movements within an industrial context. By documenting the lived experiences of miners and the strategies employed by both the strikers and the coal operators, the book highlights the tensions between corporate interests and the pursuit of civil liberties. It remains a significant primary resource for understanding the evolution of the United Mine Workers and the broader history of industrial relations in the United States. Through its focus on a specific regional conflict, 'The Strike for Union' illuminates the universal challenges of labor organization and the quest for economic justice in the early twentieth century.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
