Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the organized violence within the American labor movement, specifically the teamsters union and others, from the 1950s to the early 1960s. This violence was not limited to picketing but also extended to bombings, shootings, and arson. The author's research covers the broad landscape of organized labor violence that has roots in pre-World War II era labor racketeering. This book chronicles threats faced by companies and individuals attempting to resist the unions' demands, as well as the authorities' frequent failure to provide adequate protection. The author also reveals the collusion between corrupt union officials and organized crime figures whose violent tactics brought terror to workplaces across America. By shedding light on this dark chapter in American labor history, the author shows how the fight for workers' rights often became entangled with criminal activity.
