Conflict and Accommodation: Coal Miners, Steel Workers, and Socialism, 1890-1920

by Michael Nash

Overview

Conflict and Accommodation focuses on the political behavior of the 600,000 men in the coal and steel industries, to reveal a fascinating correlation between labor-management conflict and the fortunes of American socialism. Nash presents data from election returbans, newspapers, union jourbanals, government reports, and taped interviews with retired coal miners to support the view that the alternation of conflict and accommodation, characteristic of American labor history, has broad political implications.
