PAUL OLIVER
An innovatory book in which this celebrated writer on the blues rediscovers

Sanctified preachers and the gospel songs of the church congregations, this
is the first book to examine the presence of these traditions on commercial

THEODORE R. MARMOR

This volume considers how the general findings of political science shed

The Trouble with America
MICHEL C R O Z I E R
F o r e w o r d by David Reisman
Michel Crozier has seen America at its besl and at its worst. The
distinguished French sociologist made extended visits there during the
peak of American prestige and power in the 1950s and twice during the
long trauma that, as he sees it, began with the assassination of John F.
Kenned}' and perhaps ended with the Iranian hostage crisis. Crozier asks
the question: How can it be that the system that once seemed to work so
well now seems to work so poorly? His answer goes to the core elements
of the American system: the due-process legal system, the mass production/
mass consumption market, the management model of rationality and the
egalitarian welfare state. His admiration for these is genuine, but he
believes that, like earlier social innovations, they may now be hardening to
a point where they block American creativity

Worker Cooperatives in America
Edited by ROBERT JACKALL & HENRY M. LEVIN
This comprehensive study of worker cooperatives in America examines the
history, dynamics, challenges and potential of this remarkable form of
enterprise. Because worker cooperatives are both owned and managed
democratically by their workers, they represent a vital form of workplace
democracy in a society where employees rarely participate in the
ownership or control of organisations that shape their working life. The
editors have brought together in this book a very useful collection of essays
which thoroughly illuminates virtually every aspect of the cooperative
phenomenon.

The Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro
Improvement Association Papers
V o l u m e III S e p t e m b e r 1920-August 1921
Edited by ROBERT A. HILL
The Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro Improvement Association Papers
will take its place among the most important records of the Afro-American
experience.' New York Times
This is the third volume of Robert A. Hill's monumental ten volume survey
of Marcus Garvey and the extraordinary1 mass movement of black social
protest he inspired.
The Garvey movement from 1920 to 1921 was an unfolding drama which
saw American and European, political, diplomatic, and economic interests
pitted against the first modern black struggle for freedom. Through his
careful documentation of the complexities and turmoil of the Garvey
movement, Robert Hill establishes himself as the pre eminent scholar of
Garveyism and its relationship to the international development of black
nationalism.

America's Working Man
Work, Home, and Politics among

Blue-Collar Property Owners
DAVID HALLE

'Am I a working man? You bet! I'm standing here freezing and breathing
in all these fumes . - . You're not a working man if you work in an
office.'
Over a period of six years, at factory and warehouse, in their homes and
pubs, at union meetings and social outings, David Halle talked and
listened to workers of an automated chemical plant in New Jersey's
industrial heartland. He has emerged with an unusually comprehensive
picture of blue collar life in America.
Halle tackles two of the classic questions of sociology: How far do the
lives and beliefs of blue-collar workers overlap with those of the
'middle-class'? How much are these workers integrated into or alienated
from, the class structure? Throughout the book, Halle illustrates his
analysis with excerpts of the workers' views on everything from strikes,
class consciousness, politics, job security, and toxic chemicals to marriage,
betting on the horses, God, home ownership, drinking, adultery, the
Super Bowl, and life after death.

Steppin' Out
New York Nightlife and the Transformation of

American Culture, 1890-1930
LEWIS A. ERENBERG

The evolution of New York nightlife from the Gay Nineties through the
Jazz age was, as Lewis A. Erenberg shows, both symbol and catalyst of
America's transition out of the Victorian period. Cabaret culture led the
way to new styles of behaviour and consumption, dissolving conventional
barriers between classes, race, the sexes — even between life and art. A
fabulous era of chorus girls, hip flasks and lobster palaces one-steps
through the pages of this ground-breaking and very entertaining cultural
history.

Public Values and Private Power
in American Politics

Edited b y j . DAVID GREENSTONE
These eight essays focus on an issue central to the work of the renowned
political scientist Grant McConnell — the conflict between private and
public values in a polity dominated by self-interest. The contributors,
distinguished political scientists in their own right, emphasise the ways
in which the often group-dominated processes of American democracy
undermine rather than protect minority rights and subvert rather than
contribute to the interests of the general public.

One and Inseparable
Daniel Webster and t h e Union
MAURICE G. BAXTER
From the ratification of the Constitution to the outbreak of the Civil War,
few persons played a greater role in American history than Daniel Webster.
He was a spokesman of New England commercial interests in the war of 1812,
later an apostle of the industrial system and advocate of protective tariffs; a
brilliant expositor of the Constitution as an instrument for national
economic growth and strong central government; the architect of a foreign
policy that brought permanent peace between the United States and
England; and the Great Compromiser who tried to reconcile the clashing
interests of North and South. Despite his importance, Webster has never
been the subject of a full-scale, scholarly biography. Maurice G. Baxter's One
and Inseparable traces the inter-related evolution of the public career and
private life of this imposing and controversial Yankee of whom Ralph Waldo
Emerson once said: 'Nature had not in our days, or not since Napoleon, cut
out such a masterpiece.'

Province of Reason
SAM BASS WARNER, Jr.
This book is about some of the largest events of the twentieth century, about
international war, economic collapse, new science and technologies and
about the transformation of an old milltown region into a modern American
metropolis. Warner's unique book sees those changes through the eyes of
fourteen particular Bostonians whose lives span the years from 1850 to 1980
- a time when Boston, like all American cities, was being rebuilt according
to the changing specifications of science, engineering, mass wealth and big
corporations.
From Bostonian Brahmins to self-made millionaires, Warner brings us a
wide variety of characters: May Austin, mystic; Fred Allen, radio comedian;
Charles A. Stone and Edwin S. Webster, electrical engineers; Elizabeth
Richards, reformist clubwoman; Emily Green Balch, economist and winner
of the Nobel Peace Prize; Willam Madison Wood, textile magnate; Fred
Erwin Beal, socialist labour organiser; Louise Andrews Kent, surburban
housewife and writer; Vannevar Bush, science administrator; Laurence K.
Marshall, electronics entrepreneur; James Bryant Conant, university
president and educational reformer; and Rachel Carson, renowned science
writer. Their individual experiences offer a unique perspective on this period
of history.
