Law & Society Review © 1977 Law and Society Association Abstract: Class struggle shapes every aspect of the law. In Buffalo, New York, the railroad strikes of 1892 and 1894, coupled with a major depression, heightened the level of class conflict. Hundreds of thousands of American workers had "taken to the road," both as a form of political protest and to look for work. When one of these "tramp armies" reached Buffalo, it was greeted by a show of working class solidarity among the Polish immigrant community, and by massive police repression under the control of the bourgeoisie. This paper analyzes the economic, political, and social context of those events.
