In this first history of Arab American activism in the 1960s, Pamela Pennock brings to the forefront one of the most overlooked minority groups in the history of American social movements.

Gregory Wood. Clearing the Air: The Rise and Fall of Smoking in the Workplace
In this illuminating blend of labor and addiction history, social and labor historian Gregory Wood provides a new lens on American labor history. Building upon studies dating back to the 1970s and 1980s of the role of alcohol in nineteenth-century work culture, Wood reveals the considerable significance of cigarette smoking to the history of the twentieth-century workplace. For working-class people, Wood argues, the act of smoking was “subversive…

Advertising on trial: Consumer activism and corporate public relations in the 1930s - by Inger L. Stole
During a period of New Deal experimentation, when so much was being questioned about the political economy of the United States, the consumer movement presented a much more radical challenge to the institution of advertising than ever before or since. Its radicalism appeared in its criticism not only of abuses and excesses but also of normal techniques (mainly emotional appeals) and advertising’s very existence and function in American society. C…
Marketing Health: Smoking and the Discourse of Public Health in Britain, 1945-2000
Most historians who study smoking policy have interpreted the history of the tobacco industries in a critical light, and most historians of twentieth-century British public health have focused on the institutional history of the profession. In her book, Virginia Berridge seeks to disengage from these interpretive veins by offering an ideological history of public health in Britain after the Second World War, an account that ‘avoids partisanship a…

The National Recovery Administration and the Rubber Tire Industry, 1933–1935
In the 1920s and 1930s, the rubber tire industry faced debilitating challenges, mostly brought about by changes in the industry's retail structure and exacerbated by the Great Depression. Segments of the industry attempted to use the New Deal's NRA codes to solve these new problems and stabilize the tire market, but the tire manufacturing and tire retailing codes were patent failures. Instead of leading to cartelization and higher prices, which i…
