Stanley Aronowitz, a teacher, writer, and former trade union organizer, examines the decline of the labor movement in the past 25 years and its recent re-emergence as a major player in the country's economic and political life. Republicans suddenly find themselves under attack from a forgotten foe. Democrats are shocked to see this ghost walking about, compelling the party to fight for a minimum-wage law it had practically abandoned. The labor movement, once given up for dead, is now the engine of economic democracy and progressive politics. But to succeed, Aronowitz argues, it must return to the social movement unionism of Debs and Reuther. Such an energetic new movement is the key to America's future. Bound to generate national debate, From the Ashes of the Old proposes a series of concrete, programmatic suggestions covering the principal challenges facing the labor movement today: organize in the South and among the working poor, unionize white-collar and technical employees, and reestablish labor's political independence.
