BUCKMAN, JOSEPH Immigrants and the class struggle : the Jewish immigrant in Leed

Description: Immigrants and the class struggle surveys the economic and social life of an immigrant community from the standpoint of a radical economist. Concentrating on the tailoring and slippermaking trades, it analyses the conditions of Jewish provincial workers be- fore the first world war, and the social conse- quences of their economic plight. Joe Buck- man overturns accepted views of the alien trades, arguing that secular deterioration meant increased burdens for the Jewish workers, and bitter class struggle within their community. Moreover the local host society - the labour movement in particular - was not only antagonistic but played an intimate part in Jewish labour organisation and experi- ence. The influence of Jewish socialism in community life is also considered. An avowedly dialectical approach and the use of Yiddish sources open new perspec- tives. Untapped statistical material, business records and oral sources are deployed in a critical treatment of received opinion which will be of particular interest to sociologists and economic historians.
