Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the effects of strikes on the costs of food, clothing, and rent following World War I. The author argues that strikes were a major factor in the high cost of living, highlighting how labor unions used the strike weapon to force wage increases and other concessions from employers, which in turn led to increased production costs that were passed on to consumers. The book delves into specific examples of strikes in various industries, such as clothing, steel, and construction, to illustrate the negative impact on production, distribution, and overall economic stability. The author contends that these strikes not only caused widespread economic hardship but also undermined the progress made by the labor movement during the war. By examining the historical context of this period of labor unrest, the book provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between organized labor, industry, and the public during a time of significant social and economic change.
