As the unions once again seek to play a decisive role in American life, this book probes into the structure and ideology of mid-twentieth-century trade unionism. It contains an introduction by historian Nelson Lichtenstein offering insight into the Millsian political world at the time he wrote the book.
When C. Wright Mills published The New Men of Power in 1948, he
thought labor leaders a new strategic elite and the unions a set of vanguard organizations that were crucial to "stopping the main drift towards war and slump." Today, as the unions once again seek to play a decisive role in American life, Mills'' remarkable probe into the structure and ideology of mid-twentieth-century trade unionism remains essential reading. A new introduction by historian Nelson Lichtenstein offers insight into the Millsian political world at the time he wrote The New Men of Power.
