Labor's War at Home examines a critical period in American politics
and labor history, beginning with the outbreak of war in Europe in
1939 through the wave of major industrial strikes that followed the
war and accompanied the reconversion to a peacetime economy. Nelson
Lichtenstein is concerned both with the internal organizations and
social dynamics of the labor movement - especially the Congress of
Industrial Organizations - and with the relationship between the
CIO, as well as other bodies of organized labor, and the Roosevelt
administration. He argues that tensions within the labor movement
and within the ranks of American business profoundly affected
government policy during the war and the nature of organized
labor's political relations with Roosevelt and the Democratic
Party. Moreover, the political arrangements worked out during the
war established the foundations of social stability and labor
politics that came to characterize the postwar world.
