Abstract

The Winnipeg General Strike of 1919 was a local working-class revolt that challenged the hegemony of capital in a moment of crisis for the ruling class in Canada. Although its particular scenario is unlikely to be repeated, the trajectories and consequences of capital accumulation and ecological crisis make a different historically-specific kind of class-wide upsurge a future possibility, and this affects the interpretation of the Winnipeg General Strike as a historical event.
