Theoretical directions and the historical terrain -- pt. 2. Contemporary expressions of consciousness and action.A commonplace assumption about American workers is that they lack class consciousness. This perception has baffled social scientists, demoralized activists, and generated a significant literature on American exceptionalism. In this provocative book, a young sociologist takes the prevailing assumptions to task and sheds new light upon this very important issue. In three vivid case studies Fantasia explores the complicated, multi-faceted dynamics of American working-class consciousness and collective action.Consciousness, action, and contemporary American workersWorking classUnited StatesHistory20th centuryLabor unionsUnited StatesHistory20th centuryLabor disputesUnited StatesCase studiesClass consciousnessUnited StatesHistory20th centuryWorking classHistoryLabor unionsHistoryLabor disputesClass consciousnessHistory331.8/0973Fantasia Rick965308MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910954524003321Cultures of solidarity2489248UNINA
