https://doi.org/10.18384/2310-676X-2016-4-41-46

Abstract

The article deals with the growing activity of the working organizations of El Salvador in the 1920s, as well as with the strengthening of their orderliness and fighting spirit, and intensification of the political consciousness of the workers. The leadership of the conservative trade-union center of the USA - the American Federation of Labor sought to enter the labor movement of El Salvador and other Latin American countries in the direction of Pro-American reformism, using the Pan-American Federation of Labor (PAFL) as a tool. At PAFL congresses the delegates from El Salvador openly took the anti-American and anti-imperialist position.
