A Discerning Review of the New Edition of Raising Expectations (& Raising Hell)

Thanks to Canadian Dimensions for re-blogging this review and for this nice graphic.

Sam Gindin wrote a really thoughtful review of Raising Expectations (& Raising Hell). It is hard to pick out any one paragraph, but I keep coming back to a key one near the end of his piece, where he says,

“In this context, McAlevey’s book is timely and desperately needed because it convincingly demonstrates that the problem is not in the stars, but in ourselves. If we as the Left can get our shit together, it is possible to build groups of workers into a social force in spite of the times.”
