Digital master created according to Benchmark for Faithful Digital Reproductions of Monographs and Serials, Version 1. Digital Library Federation, December 2002 Includes bibliographical references and index The rise and decline of industrial unionism in the packinghouse industry is a unique story that casts into bold relief the conflicts between labor and capital and the tensions based on race and gender in a perpetually changing workforce. The essayists in Unionizing the Jungles discuss the structurally distinctive features of the packinghouse industry - such as the fact that violence and extreme antiunionism were central elements of its culture - the primary actors in the union-building process, the roots of the distinctive interracialism of the United Packinghouse Workers of America and the explosion of industrial unionism in the 1930s, and the community-based militant unionism of the Independent Union of All Workers Central themes throughout their essays include the role of African American workers, the constant battle for racial equality, and the eruption of gender conflict in the 1950s. Structural and technological changes in the corporate economy, the increased mobility of capital, and a more hostile political economy all contributed to the difficulties the labor movement faced in the 1980s and beyond. Focusing on the workplace and the community as arenas of conflict and accommodation, the new labor historians in these vigorous essays consider the historical and contemporary problems posed by the development of the packinghouse industry and its unions and reflect on the implications of this dramatic history for the larger story of the changing relations between labor and capital in mass production industry Introduction : unionizing the jungles, past and present - Shelton Stromquist & Marvin Bergman -- - The Swift difference : workers, managers, militants, and welfare capitalism in Chicago's stockyards, 1917-1942 - Paul Street -- - Organizing "wall-to-wall" : the Independent Union of All Workers, 1933-1937 - Peter Rachleff -- - Race and radicalism in the Chicago stockyards : the rise of the Chicago Packinghouse Workers Organizing Committee - Rick Halpern -- - "This community of our union" : shopfloor power and social unionism in the postwar UPWA - Roger Horowitz -- - The limits of social democratic unionism in midwestern meatpacking communities : patterns of internal strife, 1948-1955 - Wilson J.

spelling | Unionizing the jungles labor and community in the twentieth-century meatpacking industry edited by Shelton Stromquist and Marvin Bergman Iowa City, IA University of Iowa Press c1997 1 Online-Ressource (vi, 272 p.) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Papers originated in a seminar at the University of Iowa. - Master and use copy. Digital master created according to Benchmark for Faithful Digital Reproductions of Monographs and Serials, Version 1. Digital Library Federation, December 2002 Includes bibliographical references and index The rise and decline of industrial unionism in the packinghouse industry is a unique story that casts into bold relief the conflicts between labor and capital and the tensions based on race and gender in a perpetually changing workforce. The essayists in Unionizing the Jungles discuss the structurally distinctive features of the packinghouse industry - such as the fact that violence and extreme antiunionism were central elements of its culture - the primary actors in the union-building process, the roots of the distinctive interracialism of the United Packinghouse Workers of America and the explosion of industrial unionism in the 1930s, and the community-based militant unionism of the Independent Union of All Workers Central themes throughout their essays include the role of African American workers, the constant battle for racial equality, and the eruption of gender conflict in the 1950s. Structural and technological changes in the corporate economy, the increased mobility of capital, and a more hostile political economy all contributed to the difficulties the labor movement faced in the 1980s and beyond. Focusing on the workplace and the community as arenas of conflict and accommodation, the new labor historians in these vigorous essays consider the historical and contemporary problems posed by the development of the packinghouse industry and its unions and reflect on the implications of this dramatic history for the larger story of the changing relations between labor and capital in mass production industry Introduction : unionizing the jungles, past and present - Shelton Stromquist & Marvin Bergman -- - The Swift difference : workers, managers, militants, and welfare capitalism in Chicago's stockyards, 1917-1942 - Paul Street -- - Organizing "wall-to-wall" : the Independent Union of All Workers, 1933-1937 - Peter Rachleff -- - Race and radicalism in the Chicago stockyards : the rise of the Chicago Packinghouse Workers Organizing Committee - Rick Halpern -- - "This community of our union" : shopfloor power and social unionism in the postwar UPWA - Roger Horowitz -- - The limits of social democratic unionism in midwestern meatpacking communities : patterns of internal strife, 1948-1955 - Wilson J.
