A perennial candidate for the Democratic nomination for President between 1920 and 1932, neither his autobiography, Crowded Years, nor the many references to his life and actions by historians of the United States in the twentieth century have yet demonstrated so convincingly that McAdoo ranks as one of the most capable and energetic business leaders and cabinet officers in the entire course of American history. More than a study of McAdoo's life and character, the book is a reinterpretation of Wilsonian reform, in which McAdoo played a major role. Under McAdoo, as Dr. Broesamle shows, the Treasury became a bastion of power within the Wilson administration. Applying his restless promotional drive to government, McAdoo initiated or spearheaded major, and sometimes drastic, new departures in foreign, farm, and credit policy. He played a key role in the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, the Shipping Act, the Federal Farm Loan Act, and other important measures. Drawing on rich and unusually wide ranging research into the papers of public figures of the Wilsonian era, Dr. Broesamle brings to light many hitherto unknown facts about the ways in which the Wilson administration responded to the many crises of these years and, perhaps most significantly, how, largely through McAdoo's energetic efforts, it came to cooperate with and enjoy the cooperation of American business in reorganizing the economy and preparing for war. Brilliantly conceived, based on exhaustive research, presented with clarity and precision, and supplemented by a lengthy bibliography, WILLIAM GIBBS MCADOO: A PASSION FOR CHANGE will surely take its place among the definitive studies of the Wilsonian era in American history.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This work provides an overview and analysis of the rise, development, decline, and end of liberal reform movements and their alternation with periods of reaction in the United States from the 1890s through the mid-1980s. Broesamle's volume reassesses the course of U.S. political history over the last century and presents a new theory of American politics that reinterprets the way the system actually produces change. He relates the life cycles of reform movements to the key social, economic, and cultural developments of their eras, investigates commonalities among movements, and assesses the extent to which each movement is individual. No other history of liberalism has propounded the same thesis. The work is ambitious in its intellectual breadth and inclusiveness, and exceptionally comprehensive in both design and execution. Reform and Reaction answers the questions: What is the exact nature of the reform-reaction rhythm? What gives rise to it? Is it truly cyclical? Does each crest and trough resemble its prior and succeeding counterpart, or are they distinct? If there is a resemblance, can these political transformations be expected to repeat themselves in the future? The answers to these questions will alter previous perceptions of the relationship between the political realm and society at large and especially with respect to such phenomena as upheavals of youth, the rise and decline of campaigns on behalf of workers and farmers, feminist movements, and changing moral standards.The study is divided into three major sections: Reform, Resistance, and Reaction, each of which is preceded by a short introductory essay that establishes its fundamental direction. By employing historical examples and resurveying the chronological territory chapter by chapter, the study details the reform movements of the Progressive Era, the New Deal, and the Kennedy-Johnson period of the 60s as well as the reactionary periods of the 1920s, the 1950s, and the 1970s and 1980s. Broesamle establishes links between political trends on one hand, and social and intellectual trends on the other, that have not been delineated before. Reform and Reaction in Twentieth Century American Politics has a wide appeal to a very broad audience: professors and teachers in the fields of twentieth century U.S. history and political science, practicing political professionals, journalists covering the American political scene, and any informed generalist interested in learning more about historical and contemporary politics in the U.S. The book would be an addition to the reading lists for graduate and upper division classes on virtually any aspect of American political history from the 1890s to the mid-1980s as well as courses on current political affairs. By employing historical examples and resurveying the chronological territory chapter by chapter, the study details the development and decline of liberal reform movements and focuses on the similarities between eras of reform and reactionary phases and the interrelationship of reform movements over the decades.
