Beskrivning
"Rethinking U.S. Labor History" provides a reassessment of the recent growth and new directions in U.S. labor history. Labor History has recently undergone something of a renaissance that has yet to be documented. The book chronicles this rejuvenation with contributions from new scholars as well as established names. "Rethinking U.S. Labor History" focuses particularly on those issues of pressing interest for today's labor historians: the relationship of class and culture; the link between worker's experience and the changing political economy; the role that gender and race have played in America's labor history; and finally, the transnational turn.

"Drawing on new as well as seasoned talents to probe the outer limits of a rapidly evolving field, Rethinking U.S. Labor History will undoubtedly take its place as a valuable marker of the discipline's own history." --Leon Fink, University of Illinois at Chicago
