The Great A&P and the Struggle for Small Business in America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Levinson, Marc, PUBLISHER: Hill & Wang, From modest beginnings as a tea shop in New York, the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company became the largest retailer in the world. It was a juggernaut, the first retailer to sell $1 billion in goods, the owner of nearly sixteen thousand stores and dozens of factories and warehouses. But its explosive growth made it a mortal threat to hundreds of thousands of mom-and-pop grocery stores. Main Street fought back tooth and nail, enlisting the state and federal governments to stop price discounting, tax chain stores, and require manufacturers to sell to mom and pop at the same prices granted to giant retailers. In a remarkable court case, the federal government pressed criminalcharges against the Great A&P for selling food too cheaply--and won. "The Great A&P and the Struggle for Small Business in America "is the story of a stunningly successful company that forever changed how Americans shop and what Americans eat. It is a brilliant business history, the story of how George and John Hartford took over their father's business and reshaped it again and again, turning it into a vertically integrated behemoth that paved the way for every big-box retailer to come. George demanded a rock-solid balance sheet; John was the marketer-entrepreneur who led A&P through seven decades of rapid changes. Together, they built the modern consumer economy by turning the archaic retail industry into a highly efficient system for distributing food at low cost.

Micro Radio and the FCC: Media Activism and the Struggle

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Opel, Andy, PUBLISHER: Praeger Publishers, Micro Radio became a lightening rod for the emerging Media Activism and Reform Movement. Like the environmental movement in the s and 70s that focused on specific issues like nuclear power, the Media Activism Movement discovered a significant formative issue in micro radio at the turn of the millennium. This book is a close examination of the struggle over micro radio. Throughout this research micro radio is viewed as a site of social activity, a unique cultural and historical bond where ideas about the relationship between media and democracy are explored. This work is the first to spotlight this emerging social movement and uses critical historical analysis to provide a description of it. The information in this book shows the struggle over micro radio as the most recent manifestation of a growing social movement, a movement of media activism and reform. As local people took to the airwaves, illegally broadcasting the frivolous to the serious, theoretical concepts such as localism and public access suddenly became grounded in a real world radio show. Micro radio broadcasters were able to demonstrate what is left out of most mainstream media. They showed what could happen when a diverse public is allowed to access the most universal telecommunications of the day. This look at micro radio will be valuable to communications students who are interested in the strategies behind media and social movements, alternative media, and news media practices.

Regulating Danger: The Struggle for Mine Safety in the Rocky

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Whiteside, James, PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, From the s to the s more than eight thousand workers died in the coal mines of the Rocky Mountain states. Sometimes they died by the dozens in fiery explosions, but more often they died alone, crushed by collapsing roofs or runaway mine cars. Many old-timers in coal-mining communities and even some historians have blamed the high fatality rate on ruthless coal barons exploiting miners in the single-minded pursuit of profit. The coal industry preferred to blame careless miners. James Whiteside looks beyond those charges in seeking to explain why the western coal mines were (and, to some degree, still are) dangerous and why territorial, state, and federal laws failed for so long to make them safer. "Regulating Danger" is the first extended study of the coal-mining industry in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana. It exceeds the scope of traditional labor history in focusing on working conditions and the problems of workers instead of unions and strikes. After examining the inherent physical dangers of the work, Whiteside shows how the interplay of economic, social, and technological forces created an envi-ronment of death in the western coal mines. He goes on to discuss evolving industrial and political attitudes toward issues of responsibility for mine safety and government regulation and the fundamental changes in the industry that brought about safer working conditions.

The Toughest Beat: Politics, Punishment, and the Prison

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Page, Joshua, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, When a panel of federal judges ruled in August that California must release a full quarter of its prisoners, it did more than insist that people go free. It asserted that what was once a correctional crisis, marked by deadly overcrowding and monumental prison mismanagement, had become chronic. No longer a temporary phenomenon, the "critical condition" of the Golden State's prisons was now the normal state of affairs. In crisp, vivid prose, The Toughest Beat shows how the California Correctional Peace Officers Association (CCPOA), the labor union representing prison officers and other correctional workers, had transformed from a loose, fraternal organization into one of the most politically potent and feared interest groups in the nation. The book describes how the union promoted ultra-tough policies like "Three Strikes and You're Out," empowered political figures and groups that supported its interests and views on criminal punishment, and frustrated efforts to privatize prisons. And as its leaders made strides for its members, the union also influenced the nature, purpose, and scope of imprisonment. So to understand California's deep and durable penal crisis, Page explains, we cannot neglect the story of this group so often known simply as "the powerful prison guards' union." Page draws on years of intensive research as he uses the lessons of the CCPOA to explore how actors create, shape, and protect their interests and considers whether, by making these mechanisms clear, we might open the door to real and lasting change in the penal field and beyond.

War, Revolution, and the Bureaucratic State: Politics and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brown, Howard G., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, This book examines a period of particular importance in the formation of the modern French state. The revolutionary strife and international war of the s had important and far-reaching consequences for the development of democracy and bureaucracy in France. Howard G Brown's study of changes in army administration in this period sheds light on the dynamic relationship between the spread of political participation, the rationalization of public power, and the build-up of military might. Dr. Brown shows how the exigencies of war and the vagaries of revolutionary politics wrought rapid and profound changes in the structures and personnel of army administration. Although loath to see a massive military bureaucracy take root, legislators found that their desire to combine civilian control with military effectiveness made a large central administration unavoidable.
