Críticas:

"Boyle has assembled an excellent collection of essays. Organized Labor and American Politics is a timely subject, the methodology is sophisticated, and the research is impressive. The editor has written an insightful and synthetic introduction which ties it all together quite well." -- Nelson Lichtenstein, University of Virginia

"This book arrives at a moment of transition and considerable contemporary speculation about the future of labor politics in America. The contributors highlight and diagnose two dramatically different periods of political history: first the rise of labor influence within the Labor-Liberal Alliance (a situation forecast by Progressive Era coalitions and consummated in the New Deal Era); second the post-war operation of the 'alliance' and particularly its inherent limits and decline. Uncommonly concise and well written." -- Leon Fink, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
