How does Pullman's general business philosophy square with that of prevalent in the U.S. today in the article " Pullman defends his company (1894)"?


Rate This Answer

The Pullman Strike was a nationwide conflict between labor unions and railroads that occurred in the United States in 1894. The conflict began in the town of Pullman, Illinois on May 11 when approximately 3,000 employees of the Pullman Palace Car Company began a wildcat strike in response to recent reductions in wages, bringing traffic west of Chicago to a halt. It is similar to strikes of today.
