It reveals how Northern corporate moderates, representing some of the largest fortunes and biggest companies of that era, proposed all three major initiatives and explores why there were no viable alternatives put forward by the opposition. More generally, this book analyzes the seeming paradox of policy support and political opposition. The authors seek to demonstrate the superiority of class dominance theory over other perspectives?historical institutionalism, Marxism, and protest-disruption theory?in explaining the origins and development of these three policy initiatives. Domhoff and Webber draw on extensive new archival research to develop a fresh interpretation of this seminal period of American government and social policy development. 410 0$aStudies in social inequality. 606 $aNew Deal, 1933-1939 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1933-1945 607 $aUnited States$xEconomic policy$y1933-1945 607 $aUnited States$xSocial policy 615 0$aNew Deal, 1933-1939. 676 $a973.917 700 $aDomhoff$b G.
