Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the causes of the labor strike that paralyzed Brooklynâs surface railroads in 1895. The author examines the complex relationship between the corporations, represented by their presidents, and the employees, represented by the Knights of Labor. The strike began on January 14, 1895, after negotiations broke down over wages, hours, and working conditions. The author provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the strike, including the failed attempts at arbitration and the role of the State Board of Mediation and Arbitration. The book also explores the social and economic context of the strike, examining the broader labor movement of the time and the impact of the strike on the city of Brooklyn. The author argues that the strike was a watershed moment in the history of labor relations in the United States. The strike exposed the tensions between the corporations and their employees and highlighted the need for a fairer and more equitable system of labor relations. The book concludes by discussing the legacy of the strike and its relevance to contemporary labor issues.
