Anotace knihy

In November 1933, the Socialist Party of Bridgeport, Connecticut won a stunning victory in the municipal election, putting slate roofer Jasper McLevy in the mayor's seat and nearly winning control of the city council. In "Bridgeport's Socialist New Deal, 1915-36", in paperback for the first time, Cecelia Bucki probes the factors that led to this electoral victory and its continuation, uncovering a legacy of activist unionism, business manipulation of local politics and taxes, and a growing debate over the public good. As a backdrop to the evolving national developments of the New Deal, this study stands at the intersection of political, labor, and ethnic history; illustrates the volatility of politics in the early depression years; and provides a penetrating new perspective on how working people affected urban politics in the inter-war era.
