The Class-Gender Nexus in the American Economy and in Attempts to “Rebuild the Labor Movement”

Chapter 10 in Class Struggle on the Home Front, 2009, pp 218-238 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In the 1980s the work of Steve Resnick and Rick Wolff convinced us that there was a way around the economic determinism that had long characterized Marxian political economy. As graduate students we were concerned with the restructuring of the US economy, especially the new class relations that were emerging in what was then called “high technology” industry and the defensive struggles being waged by workers and their organizations in old line manufacturing.
