At a time when trade unions were a substantial force in both American and European politics, the fiercely anti-communist American Federation of Labor–Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL–CIO) set a strong example for labour organizations overseas. The AFL–CIO cooperated closely with the US government on foreign policy and enjoyed an intimate, if sometimes strained, relationship with the CIA. The activities of its international staff, and especially the often secretive work of Jay Lovestone and Irving Brown—whose biographies read like characters plucked from a Le Carré novel—exerted a major influence on relationships in Europe and beyond. Having mastered the enormous volume of correspondence and other records generated by staffers Lovestone and Brown, Carew presents a lively and clear account of what has largely been an unknown dimension of the Cold War. In impressive detail, Carew maps the international programs of the AFL–CIO during the Cold War and its relations with labour organizations abroad, in addition to providing a summary of the labour situation of a dozen or more countries including Finland, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Greece, and India. American Labour’s Cold War Abroad reveals how the Cold War compelled trade unionists to reflect on the role of unions in a free society. Yet there was to be no meeting of minds on this, and at the end of the 1960s the AFL–CIO broke with the mainstream of the international labour movement to pursue its own crusade against communism.Labor movementUnited StatesHistoryAfricaIrving Browntrade unionsAFL-CIOAmerican Federation of LabourGeorge MeanyUKJay LovestoneMarshall PlanCIAcommunismFranceUSLabor movementHistory.331.880973Carew Anthony1943-173721MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910346036203321American labour's cold war abroad2064659UNINA02682nam 2200457z- 450 991055609990332120220329(CKB)4920000000813387(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/79800(oapen)doab79800(EXLCZ)99492000000081338720202203d2021 |y 0itaurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierL'eredità di BramanteTra spazio virtuale e proto-designMilanFrancoAngeli20211 online resource (232 p.)Forme del disegno88-351-3006-9 Bramante's skill in controlling the creation of a seamlessly conceived space shows how architecture can exploit its representative capacity of internal perspectives, considered architecture integration. The key adopted to reach this result is the "architectura picta" of the built space. It adopts built space combined with small apparatuses to conceal the critical points in which the continuity between real and virtual space is resolved. The multiplication of centers amplifies the effectiveness of the perspective, making it convincing from several points of view, even for a moving observer. The implicit perceptual effect overcomes the geometric correctness, which was neglected to enhance its effectiveness as a tool for creating a global and augmented art "ante litteram". The research published in this volume documents, through a small number of selected cases studies, the unsuspected development in Lombardy in applying perspective decoration to architecture, understood in the broadest sense as the art of constructing artificial space. This latter consists of controlling the instruments of representation to improve perceptive involvement and visual communication. It underlines the continuity of Milanese perspective with the immersive spaces of augmented reality offered today by digital technology.L'eredità di Bramante Eredità di Bramante Theory of architecturebicsscArchitectural PerspectiveArchitectural SurveyPerception and spatial communicationPerspectiveSpatial designVirtual spacesTheory of architectureRossi Michelaedt40079Russo MicheleedtRossi MichelaothRusso MicheleothBOOK9910556099903321L'eredità di Bramante3028699UNINA
