Descrição:

"The Jungle" was a novel written by Upton Sinclair and published in 1906, intended to shed light on the harsh conditions and exploited lives of immigrants in the United States in the meatpacking industry. This influential work, while originally focused on labor rights, inadvertently sparked a major public outcry about unsanitary food conditions, leading to significant reforms in food safety with the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act.
