Excerpt from The Labor Spy Racket
I have tried to write such a book.' My task, as I saw it, was to become thoroughly familiar with the complete text and select therefrom, and then organize, those highlights that tell the story. It is a shocking story. It is a story which should shame our indus trialists and arouse our workers. It is a story which should cause all fair-minded Americans to rise up in their wrath and demand that immediate steps be taken to prevent what has happened here from ever happening again.
Only that part of the committee's work which pertains to Labor Spies is dealt with in these pages. The related topics of strike breaking and industry's traffic in tear gas and munitions receive little attention, primarily because they have been so fully treated in I Break Strikes by Edward Levinson, and because it was important to keep the book as short and simple as possible.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book uncovers an insidious secret haunting labor unions in the 1930s: labor spies. Their sole purpose? Union prevention and disintegration. The author meticulously pieces together sworn testimonies from victims and perpetrators alike to reveal the inner workings of this nefarious scheme. The author deftly sets this practice within the context of the labor movement's struggle for recognition and fair treatment. Through detailed case studies, the book exposes the tactics employed by spy agencies to infiltrate and sabotage union organizing efforts. It delves into the psychological toll on workers living in constant fear of losing their jobs for exercising their right to organize. The book goes beyond mere exposure; it explores the ethical and societal implications of labor espionage. The author questions the erosion of civil liberties and democratic principles when corporations prioritize profit over workers' rights. This book serves as a stark reminder of the lengths to which some employers will go to suppress workers' voices. It underscores the importance of vigilance in safeguarding the fundamental rights of workers to organize and bargain collectively for better working conditions.
