Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex history and implications of the meat-packing industry in the United States. The author traces the rise of the "Big Five" packers, their dominance of the market, and the subsequent government investigations that exposed unfair practices. The book goes beyond the realm of business, examining the social and economic consequences of concentrated power within the industry. It explores the impact on independent packers, farmers, and ultimately, consumers.
