Labor
studies
scholars
and
working-class
historians
have
long
worked
at
the
crossroads
of
academia
and
activism.
The
essays
in
this
collection
examine
the
challenges
and
opportunities
for
engaged
scholarship
in
the
United
States
and
abroad.
A
diverse
roster
of
contributors
discuss
how
participation
in
current
labor
and
social
struggles
guides
their
campus
and
community
organizing,
public
history
initiatives,
teaching,
mentoring,
and
other
activities.
They
also
explore
the
role
of
research
and
scholarship
in
social
change,
while
acknowledging
that
intellectual
labor
complements
but
never
replaces
collective
action
and
movement
building.

once
an
introduction
to
the
long
tradition
of
engaged
scholarship
among
labor
historians
and
a
guide
to
the
richly
varied
ways
many
have
found
to
make
a
difference
today,
Civic
Labors
is
a
perfectly
timed
treasure
trove
of
inspiration."--Nancy
MacLean,
author
of
Freedom
Is
Not
Enough:
The
Opening
of
the
American
Workplace
"These essays provide illuminating insights into what it means to be an engaged academic and citizen of labor. Graced by Shelton Stromquist's sharp essay and David Montgomery's endearing comments, in this one volume we find a true community of scholars who seek to understand and change the world."--Michael Honey, author ofGoing Down Jericho Road: The Memphis Strike, Martin Luther King's Last Campaign
"This
book
makes
an
important
contribution
to
the
field
of
working-class
studies
by
offering
a
'sober-yet
hopeful'
outlook
on
the
challenges
and
opportunities
of
scholar
activism."
--Capital
&
Class
"Addresses the many ways scholars can be and are activists outside the ivory tower, as well as the risks that they may face when they engage in this activism. . . . Readers will be reminded why they became labor historians."--Journal of American History
"This is a must-read for labour activists, scholarly or not."--Labour/Le Travail
"This publication is a well-deserved tribute to Stromquist, who is held in the highest regard by labor historians for his keen intellect, generous spirit, and commitment to social justice." --Labor: Studies in Working-Class History
