The crusade, led in large part by young Communists, was both an anti-war campaign and a movement championing a broader and more egalitarian vision of the welfare state than that of the New Dealers. The movement arose from a massive political awakening on campus, caused by the economic crisis of the 1930's, the escalating international tensions, and threat of world war wrought by fascism. At its peak, in the late 1930's, the movement mobilized at least a half million collegians in annual strikes against war. 606 $aStudent movements$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCollege students$xPolitical activity$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aDepressions$y1929$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aStudent movements$xHistory 615 0$aCollege students$xPolitical activity$xHistory 615 0$aDepressions$xHistory. 676 $a378.1981 676 $a378.19810973 700 $aCohen$b Robert$f1955 May 21-$01603842 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821623603321 996 $aWhen the old left was young$94194844 997 $aUNINA
