Teamster Bureaucracy Last volume in the 4-volume set.

Farrell Dobbs (1907–1983) was national secretary of the Socialist Workers Party from 1953 to 1972 and the SWP presidential candidate four times. In 1934 he emerged from the ranks of the Teamsters as a central leader of battles that transformed the union movement during the Great Depression. He was a leader of the strikes that year that made Minneapolis a union town and later of the organizing drives that brought a quarter million over-the-road truck drivers into the Teamsters union across the Midwest and Mid-South. During World War II, Dobbs and other central SWP leaders organizing labor opposition to Washington’s war aims were railroaded to federal prison by the US imperialist rulers. He is the author of the series on the Teamster battles of the 1930s (four-volumes, 1972–77) and Revolutionary Continuity: Marxist Leadership in the U.S. (two volumes, 1980–83).
