Recenzii
'Hoyt Wheeler has a long history of involvement in the American labour movement at both an academic and a practical level … an informative overview of the changing nature of American labour as it has evolved and responded to attacks from antagonistic employers and largely unsympathetic governments Admirably …Wheeler also tries to convert his theory of (re)unionisation into practice by suggesting a vision for a renewed union movement … a wealth of information for anyone interested in the future of the American labour movement.' Jane Holgate, Queen Mary, University of London
