The essays in this volume focus on the role of women in the work
force. They explore how organized sports, social associations of
all kinds and the educational system faced by the children of
worker were profoundly linked to work place and community activism.
They examine why radical labor organizations that could win major
strikes often could not sustain themselves as permanent
institutions. Finally, the essays argue that simultaneous
leadership changes in management and labor in the auto industry
were less the result of internal conflicts than needed structural
adjustments to changing economic and political realities.
Interwoven into all of the essays is the intricate dynamic between
immigrant and native-born, between different immigrant waves and
the groups, and between workers at different skill levels.
Work,Recreation, and Culture enriches and expands the established
labor narratives.
