Synopses & Reviews
When published in 1986, American Workers, American Unions was among the first efforts to trace the contentious relationships among workers, unions, business, and the state from World War I through the mid-1980s. In this revised edition Robert Zieger makes use of recent scholarship and bibliographical material to provide a detailed examination of the key issues of the 1980s and 1990s.
I have used Robert Zieger's American Workers, American Unions in undergraduate courses on labor history and industrial relations. This new edition brings the story up to today--and the new, updated bibliographical essay is a plus for college courses.--Darryl Holter, Institute of Industrial Relations, University of California, Los Angeles.
A helping of sober truth about the American labor movement and its politics.--John C. Cort, New Oxford Review
