What does it mean for us today? What happened to the economic equality it once engendered? In The Great Exception, Jefferson Cowie provides new answers to these important questions. In the period between the Great Depression and the 1970s, he argues, the United States government achieved a unique level of equality, using its considerable resources on behalf of working Americans in ways that it had not before and has not since. If there is to be a comparable battle for collective economic rights today, Cowie argues, it needs to build on an understanding of the unique political foundation for the New Deal. Anyone who wants to come to terms with the politics of inequality in the United States will need to read The Great Exception. 000785071 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000785071 650_0 $$aNew Deal, 1933-1939. 000785071 650_0 $$aLiberalism$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000785071 650_0 $$aSocial conflict$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000785071 650_0 $$aPolitical culture$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000785071 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aCowie, Jefferson.$$tGreat exception$$z9780691143804$$w(DLC) 2015024474$$w(OCoLC)922572289$$z9780691143804$$z0691143803$$w(DLC) 2015024474 000785071 830_0 $$aPolitics and society in twentieth-century America. 000785071 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000785071 8520_ $$bcoll 000785071 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4089512$$zOnline Access 000785071 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:785071$$pGLOBAL_SET 000785071 980__ $$aEBOOK 000785071 980__ $$aBIB 000785071 982__ $$aEbook 000785071 983__ $$aOnline
