Advances in communication and manufacturing technology brought about a revolution for major industries such as railroads, coal, and steel. The still-growing nation established economic, political, and cultural entanglements with forces overseas. Local strikes in manufacturing, urban transit, and construction placed labor issues front and center in political campaigns, legislative corridors, church pulpits, and newspapers of the era. The Long Gilded Age considers the interlocking roles of politics, labor, and internationalism in the ideologies and institutions that emerged at the turn of the twentieth century. Presenting a new twist on central themes of American labor and working-class history, Leon Fink examines how the American conceptualization of free labor played out in iconic industrial strikes, and how "freedom" in the workplace became overwhelmingly tilted toward individual property rights at the expense of larger community standards. He investigates the legal and intellectual centers of progressive thought, situating American policy actions within an international context. In particular, he traces the development of American socialism, which appealed to a young generation by virtue of its very un-American roots and influences. The Long Gilded Age offers both a transnational and comparative look at a formative era in American political development, placing this tumultuous period within a worldwide confrontation between the capitalist marketplace and social transformation. 410 0$aAmerican business, politics, and society. 606 $aCapitalism$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aCapitalism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aLabor$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aLabor$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aGlobalization$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aGlobalization$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$y1865-1921 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCapitalism$xHistory 615 0$aCapitalism$xHistory 615 0$aLabor$xHistory 615 0$aLabor$xHistory 615 0$aGlobalization$xHistory 615 0$aGlobalization$xHistory 676 $a973.8 700 $aFink$b Leon$f1948-$0532588 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460623903321 996 $aThe long Gilded Age$92467883 997 $aUNINA
