دور منظمة فرسان العمل في الحركة العمالية الأميركية (1869-1896)‎

الملخص EN

Since the mid-nineteenth century, several movements, organizations, and unions have emerged that have taken an interest in the affairs of the worker's segment, which confirmed its active role in the united states of America in the aftermath of the civil war (1861-1865).

after the workers were prisoners of the interests of employers that did not believe in the existence of the capitalist system and the class struggle in the united states of America, they were able, through their field experience in the labor organizations, especially in the knights of labor, to reveal the reality of the goals of those interests and their negative effects on them, and to break the collar that has long been an obstacle to achieving their rights and charting their prospects.

the research was divided into four main headings, the first dealt with the conditions of workers in the aftermath of the civil war and the problems they faced, and the role of the American workers' union, which sought to reconcile employers and workers.

the second was concerned with the establishment of the knights of labor organization in 1869 and highlighted its secret activities until 1879.

the third focused on the role of the organization during the term of its president (Terence Vincent Powderly) after its transformation into a public organization that played a positive role in supporting the labor movement, especially during its participation in the strike of 1885.

the fourth dealt with the role of the organization in the strike of the first of May 1886, and its impact on its activity an indirect reason for the end of its supportive role for the labor movement in 1896.
