“The Jungle,” written by Upton Sinclair in 1906, describes how the lives and challenges of immigrants to the United States affected their emotional and physical state, as well as relationships with others . The working class was pitted against wealthy and powerful individuals who controlled numerous industries and businesses in the community. The world has always been divided into these two categories of people, those who control the world and hold the majority of power, and those who are subjugated by it. Sinclair was able to show this social divide using the example of the meat packing industry. It explained the terrible and unsafe working conditions that workers in the United States were subjected to and the growing rate of corruption, which created a feeling of desperation among the working class. Many poor people immigrated to America in hopes of achieving the American Dream but instead found themselves faced with dangerous working conditions as factory owners and multinational corporations increased their wealth and profits by exploiting this cheap means of labor. Upton Sinclair succeeded in showing the nature of wage slavery that was widespread in America in the early 20th century. People felt distressed and unimportant in the community because they were being used by the rich to generate capital by guiding the industry for future success and effectiveness in the market. Upton Sinclair was an American journalist who incorporated his personal research into the conditions of the meatpacking industry and people's lives, as well as the structure of the current business, into the novel in analysis. Therefore, real facts and data have been incorporated into this literary work, which helps the audience to feel involved in the work and understand the general atmosphere... middle of the paper... the form was high not only in this industry but throughout the country. Sinclair stated that “the animals' faith emphasized [his] view of how the industry treats humanity” (Sinclair 8). Machinery was more important and precious than human life, especially the life of an immigrant worker without rights and freedoms. The author concluded that society is a jungle where people have to work hard to survive and escape life's challenges. A continuous struggle was needed to maintain the challenges and problems of people's daily lives, allowing them to maintain control over their lives and obtain current opportunities. Exploitation of immigrants was another major issue covered in the book that promotes specific changes in society. In conclusion, Sinclair presented a very convincing argument and his writings were so influential that they moved the government to act.
