Now in its second edition, America in the Progressive Era,
1890-1917 provides a readable, analytical narrative of the
emergence, influence, and decline of the spirit of progressive
reform that animated American politics and culture around the turn
of the twentieth century. Covering the turbulent 1890s to the
American entry into World War I, the text examines the political,
social, and cultural events of a period which set the agenda for
American public life during the remainder of the twentieth century.
This new edition places progressivism in a transatlantic context
and gives more attention to voices outside the mainstream of party
politics. Key features include: A clear account of the continuing
debate in the United States over the role of government,
citizenship, and the pursuit of social justice A full examination
of the impact of reform on women and minorities A rich selection of
documents that allow the historical actors to communicate with
today's readers An extensive, updated bibliography providing a
valuable guide to additional reading and research Based on the most
recent scholarship and written to be read by students, this book
will be of interest to students of American History and Political
History.
