From the end of the 19th hundred years through the first generations of the 20th, america experienced unprecedented structural change. Innovations in communication and processing technology brought about a revolution for major establishments such as railroads, coal, and metallic. The still-growing country established economic, politics, and cultural entanglements with pushes overseas. Local attacks in manufacturing, urban transit, and structure put labor issues prominent and middle in political campaigns, legislative corridors, cathedral pulpits, and newspapers of the age. The Long Gilded Era considers the interlocking assignments of politics, labor, and internationalism in the ideologies and organizations that surfaced at the turn of the 20th hundred years. Presenting a new twist on central themes or templates of American labor and working-class history, Leon Fink examines the way the American conceptualization of free labor played out in iconic industrial strikes and exactly how "freedom" in the workplace became overwhelmingly tilted toward individual property protection under the law at the trouble of much larger community criteria. He investigates the legal and intellectual centers of intensifying thought, situating American insurance plan actions in a international context. The Long Gilded Era offers both transnational and comparative looks at a formative age in American politics development, putting this tumultuous period within an internationally confrontation between the capitalist industry and social transformation.
