Where does the New Deal fit in the big picture of American history?
What does it mean for us today? What happened to the economic
equality it once engendered? In The Great Exception, Jefferson
Cowie provides new answers to these important questions. In the
period between the Great Depression and the 1970s, he argues, the
United States government achieved a unique level of equality, using
its considerable resources on behalf of working Americans in ways
that it had not before and has not since. If there is to be a
comparable battle for collective economic rights today, Cowie
argues, it needs to build on an understanding of the unique
political foundation for the New Deal. Anyone who wants to come to
terms with the politics of inequality in the United States will
need to read The Great Exception.
