Introduction. After the Urban Crisis
The introduction to this special section argues that the deconstruction of the city’s municipal social democracy was overdetermined by shifts in the global political economy toward increased income inequality and the depoliticization of national economic management. The city’s creditors forced it into an ideologically-motivated program of market discipline that cut its operating budget as the city’s economy financialized, defined by Greta Krippne…
The Police Versus the Policed
All politics are global
One of my colleagues likes to say that if a subject was worth one book, it was worth more than one. A comparison of two books on the development of New York City's manufacturing, commercial and financial elite demon-strates how differences in theoretical approaches, research materials and literary form can lead in significantly different directions. Beckert depicts the rise of the bourgeois class in the late nineteenth century with touches of tra…
The National Association of Manufacturers and the Militarization of American Conservatism
The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) played an important role in the emerging conservative movement in the United States, both before and after World War II, but its contribution to the increasing militarism of that movement has received little scrutiny.

"All for One or All for All"
It is unusually rewarding for a historian to study a dead end of history and then to find out it might be a through road. A few years ago, when this research began, the United Nations Military Staff Committee (MSC) seemed like such a dead end. During the Persian Gulf War, however, Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev wanted the MSC to help coordinate the UN military action. More recently, intense pressure on inadequate and divided UN forces in Soma…

William Stueck's The Korean War: An International History will be required reading for all scholars of the war for some time to come. Intensively researched, the book is a readable, but detailed account of Korean War diplomacy accompanied by nearly twenty pages of bibliography
