Descriere

While many historians have contended that America took a leftward turn during the economically turbulent 1930s, McComb demonstrates that college students adopted the language of the marketplace, the logic of capitalism, and the process of self-commodification to make sense of their situation and to erect social barriers to protect a threatened middle-class status.
