Download or read book Cultures of Solidarity written by Rick Fantasia and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1989-08-18 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A commonplace assumption about American workers is that they lack class consciousness. This perception has baffled social scientists, demoralized activists, and generated a significant literature on American exceptionalism. In this provocative book, a young sociologist takes the prevailing assumptions to task and sheds new light upon this very important issue. In three vivid case studies Fantasia explores the complicated, multi-faceted dynamics of American working-class consciousness and collective action.
