Populism-progressive or retrogressive force? Posing this question,
Norman Pollack draws on Populist manuscripts and newspapers, the
best evidence for the movement's response to industrialism. In the
words of farmers and workers, Populism springs to life, ceasing to
be an abstraction. The author concludes that the movement, while
primarily agrarian, had significant intellectual and labor support;
accepting industrialization, it opposed capitalistic industrialism
as alienating and degrading the individual. In this intellectual
history-based on data most of which has been ignored-the author
takes a first step toward a more comprehensive analysis of
industrial America.
