New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2015. ix, 355 p. : il. ; 23 cm. Cambridge essential histories "Radicals in America offers the first complete and continuous history of left-wing social movements in the United States from the Second World War to the present. The book traces the full panoply of radical activist causes--socialism, Communism, the labor movement, anarchism, pacifism, anti-racism, women's rights, LGBT liberation, ecology, indigenous rights, and world social justice--in ways that show how successive generations join currents of dissent, face setbacks and political repression, and generate new challenges to the status quo, even in periods when conservatism appears to push protest to the margins of American society"-- Provided by publisher.
