Rank-and-file Rebellion

Résumé du livre

This dissertation investigates the upsurge of working class militancy in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when American union workers engaged in an extraordinary level of rank-and-file activism. An investigation among three groups of workers -- postal workers, communications workers, and teamsters, demonstrates how changes on the job and in the union stimulated and retarded union workers' organization.
