'I.W.W. - Its History, Structure, and Method' Summary
This book offers a deep dive into the history and ideology of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), a revolutionary labor union founded in 1905. Author Vincent St. John, a leading figure in the IWW, guides readers through the organization's origins, structure, and methods. He explains the IWW's core belief in "One Big Union", a unified front of all workers to challenge the power of the capitalist system. The book details how the IWW sought to achieve this goal through collective bargaining, strikes, and other forms of industrial action. It also delves into the IWW's social and political aims, emphasizing their commitment to worker self-governance and the dismantling of the wage system. St. John examines the IWW's struggles against powerful corporations, the government, and even other labor unions, highlighting the challenges and triumphs of their movement. He concludes by underscoring the IWW's enduring message of solidarity and the ongoing struggle for workers' rights and economic justice. "I.W.W. - Its History, Structure, and Method" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor movements, radical politics, and the fight for social change.Book Details
