Descripción Hard Back. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: No Dust Jacket As Issued. First Edition. 928 Pages Indexed. Brand new condition. Laminated pictorial boards. This volume is the first comprehensive reference work on the history of the American Left. Defined as that segment of society which has sought fundamental changes in the economic, political and cultural systems, the subject does not include reformers who believe that change can be accommodated to existing capitalist structures, or who believe that an egalitarian society can be attained ultimately within national borders. By placing a strong emphasis upon radicals-anarchists, socialists, and communists-The Encyclopedia of the American Left has been able to delve into many topics otherwise little known, or frequently discussed without relation to their actual Left context. Histories of the United States have, until the 1960s-70s, generally treated radical movements and radicals unfavorably except as eccentric personalities. By contrasting the Left with more acceptable reform movements and reformers, standard treatments suggested an unpleasant fanaticism, or at least a lack of basic patriotism toward American institutions. Aside from a handful of valuable memoirs and a scattering of monographs, few serious accounts of radicals themselves could be found. Not surprisingly, serious gaps existed in basic reference materials relating to Left topics. Our project would, therefore, have been impossible only a generation ago. Two contemporary intellectual developments changed the picture. Many activists with peak years of involvement before World War II turned to writing memoirs, often donating their personal papers to existing archives. The waning of McCarthyism and its threats of political intimidation encouraged individuals and organizational leaders to be more specific and candid about past events. The volume builds upon and from all the layers of the Left's collective autobiography. Each entry has been written specifically for this encyclopedia, and most entries are based upon primary sources. References have been designed less for definitive documentation than the general research on the subject. Approximately 100 graphics are included embodying the dominant styles of various Left eras and organizations. A large heavy book that may incur additional shipping charges to some locations.
