圖書介紹
In the early 20th century, working women and wealthy and middle-class allies joined together in the Women's Trade Union League to unionize women workers, bring their problems to public attention, and secure protective legislation. History professor Payne's analysis of the ideology and roots of WTUL and its leader Robins explains the union's successful functioning despite class, ethnic, and age differences between workers and allies, its ambivalent relationship with the AFL, and its eventual parting from feminists. Her valuable discussion of Robins's distaste for New Deal programs clarifies the differences between Progressive and later philosophies.
