The basic concern of the author is to find the reason for the
persistent leftist character of French working-class politics in a
period of rapid industrialization and improving living standards.
Reanalyzing material from surveys made by two French organizations,
he finds that increased affluence is correlated with changes in
social structure that increase radicalism. As rural and small-town
workers come into big cities and large plants, they are influenced
by political activists who provide them with a Communist frame of
reference for interpreting the meaning of new affluence. Originally
published in 1967. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
