It created an anchor and a reference point for American liberal politics through the struggles for racial, gender, and economic equality in the five decades that followed it. Indeed, the ways that liberalism has changed in meaning since the New Deal provide a critical prism through which to understand twentieth-century politics. From the consensus liberalism of the war years to the strident liberalism of the sixties to the besieged liberalism of the eighties and through the more recent national debates about welfare reform and Social Security privatization, the prominent historians gathered here explore the convoluted history of the complex legacy of the New Deal and its continuing effect on the present.In its scope and variety of subjects, this book reflects the protean quality of American liberalism. Alan Brinkley focuses on the range of choices New Dealers faced. Alonzo Hamby traces the Democratic Party's evolving effort to incorporate New Deal traditions in the Cold War era. Richard Fried offers a fresh look at the impact of McCarthyism. Richard Polenberg situates Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, in a tradition of liberal thought. And Melvin Urosfsky shows how the Roosevelt Court set the legal dimensions within which the debate about the meaning of liberalism would be conducted for decades. Other subjects include the effect of the Holocaust on relations between American Jews and African Americans; the limiting effects of racial and gender attitudes on the potential for meaningful reform; and the lasting repercussions of the tumultuous 1960s. Provocative, illuminating and sure to raise questions for future study, The Achievement of American Liberalism testifies to a vibrant and vital field of inquiry. 606 $aNew Deal, 1933-1939 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xInfluence 606 $aLiberalism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSocial movements$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1933-1945 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xSocial conditions$y20th century 615 0$aNew Deal, 1933-1939. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xSocial aspects 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xInfluence. 615 0$aLiberalism$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 615 0$aSocial movements$xHistory 676 $a973.917 702 $aChafe$b William H.$f1942- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810160603321 996 $aThe achievement of American liberalism$93961831 997 $aUNINA
