SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
William Form offers a contemporary analysis of division within American labor and its inability to forge a cohesive political strategy. The author describes changes in American cities, political parties, and organized labor over the last thirty years. This comprehensive work features three case studies of political activities in three metrolpolitan centers - Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati. In addition, chapters present the results of a survey examining the electoral effectiveness of labor and offer a strategy for labor to become more politically viable.
