Doing History From The Bottom Up : On E.P. Thompson, Howard Zinn, and Rebuilding the Labor Movement from Below Paperback / softback
by Staughton Lynd
Paperback / softback
Description
In the 1960s, historians on both sides of the Atlantic began to challenge the assumptions of their colleagues and push for an understanding of history from below.' In this collection Staughton Lynd, himself one of the pioneers of this approach, laments the passing of fellow luminaries David Montgomery, E.P.
Thompson, Alfred Young and Howard Zinn, and makes the case that contemporary academics and activists alike should take more seriously the stories and perspectives of Native Americans, slaves, rank-and-file workers and other still-too-frequently marginalised voices.'
