Briefly in control of, then dramatically expelled from, the US Communist Party, they maintained an independent existence on the US Left from 1929 to 1940. Some became prominent in the labour and civil rights movements, while Will Herberg became a prominent Jewish theologian and an editor of the conservative National Review, and Bertram Wolfe worked as an anti-Communist ideologist with the US State Department. Lovestone himself collaborated with the CIA to help shape the Cold War foreign policy of the AFL-CIO. Yet earlier documents and articles from the Lovestone group provide rich information and remarkable insights on twentieth-century realities and radicalism. 410 0$aHistorical materialism book series ;$vVolume 83. 606 $aCommunism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCommunism$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCommunism$xHistory 615 0$aCommunism$xHistory 676 $a324.273/75092 702 $aBlanc$b Paul le 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511345903321 996 $aThe 'American exceptionalism' of Jay Lovestone and his comrades, 1929-40$92548412 997 $aUNINA
