. . . the corruption of the American meatpacking industry .
Meat-Packing IndustryThe original purpose of Upton Sinclair's The Jungle was to expose the unfair work practices experienced by poor immigrant laborers. Most of the work in the industry was being carried out by people with few political or legal rights to protest their poor working conditions and harsh treatment. However, the public was most focused on the unsanitary conditions of the meatpacking industry.
The Jungle was written in 1906 by Upton Sinclair. It contrasts the corruption of the meat-packing industry with the appalling conditions and day-to-day hopelessness the "lower classes" work and live in. Upon publication, (after 5 rejections) the Jungle became an instant best seller and has never gone out of print.
