Abstract Details

2010, Master of Arts, University of Toledo, College of Arts and Sciences.
This thesis reviews the community of Toledo during the Electric Auto-Lite Strike in 1934. The interpretation offered here is that the strike was not only a class struggle, but a community struggle as well. Some of the groups that made up the “worker community” were auto-parts workers, unemployed citizens, small business owners, and various ethnic groups. The main idea of the thesis is that through this struggle the Toledo worker community helped shape the eventual concrete conception of organized labor in the late 1930s.
