Beyond Equality
AvDavid Montgomery
E-bok
Engelska, 2013

"The era of Reconstruction was short-lived but rife with historically significant activity. The central political issues of the day, according to the author, were the future integrity of the Union, and the future status of the newly emancipated Negroes. His purpose here is to use the labor question as a prism through which to study the whole political spectrum. Equality before the law within a securely unified nation was the aim of the Radical Republicans, and class conflict "the submerged shoal on which Radical dreams foundered." While Republicans in Congress strove to legislate equality for the Negro in the South, labor leaders in their home districts demanded that social reconstruction be extended northward. This "challenge from the flank" contributed to the abrupt decline of Radical power, and the emergence of both liberals and stalwarts. Mr. Montgomery''s grasp of the statistical and concrete details of his subject is as exhaustive as anyone could wish, and if for no other reason, he deserves much credit for rescuing such pioneer labor leaders as Ira Steward from their ill-deserved oblivion. Still, special." --Kirkus Review
Fall of the House of Labor
The Workplace, the State, and American Labor Activism, 1865–1925

PDF, Engelska, 1987

This book studies the changing ways in which American industrial workers mobilised concerted action in their own interests between the abolition of slavery and the end of open immigration from Europe and Asia. Sustained class conflict between 1916 and 1922 reshaped governmental and business policies, but left labour largely unorganised and in retreat. The House of Labor, so arduously erected by working-class activists during the preceeding generation, did not collapse, but ossified, so that when labour activism was reinvigorated after 1933, the movement split in two. These developments are analysed here in ways which stress the links between migration, neighbourhood life, racial subjugation, business reform, the state, and the daily experience of work itself.
The Workers' Movement in the United States, 1879-1885

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
August Sartorius von Waltershausen (1852-1938) was an eminent German economist who visited the United States at the beginning of the 1880s and wrote a series of articles on the US labor movement, which were published in Germany. His training in the historical school of economics provided him with a different perspective from that of laissez-faire economists or socialists of his time. The articles are translated in this book, and presented with a biographical essay by Marcel van der Linden and Gregory Zieren and with an essay on his contribution to the writing of American labor history by David Montgomery. This book provides rich insights into the character of American workers' organizations as they recovered from the depression of the 1870s, before the establishment of strong national institutions.

The Experience of Workers in the United States with Democracy and the Free Market during the Nineteenth Century

This book discusses the relationship between workers and the government by focusing not on the legal regulation of unions and strikes, but on popular struggles for citizenship rights. This discussion includes the role of democracy in the dismantling of indentured servitude, judicial decisions shaping the rights and obligations of the development of vagrancy law and of municipal police forces. The book also examines the role of the Democratic, Republican, and Know Nothing parties in shaping popular political culture and in mobilising and channeling the political activity of white and black workers.

Practicing Islam
Knowledge, Experience, and Social Navigation in Kyrgyzstan

David W. Montgomery presents a rich ethnographic study on the practice and meaning of Islamic life in Kyrgyzstan. As he shows, becoming and being a Muslim are based on knowledge acquired from the surrounding environment, enabled through the practice of doing. Through these acts, Islam is imbued in both the individual and the community. To Montgomery, religious practice and lived experience combine to create an ideological space that is shaped by events, opportunities, and potentialities that form the context from which knowing emerges. This acquired knowledge further frames social navigation and political negotiation. Through his years of on-the-ground research, Montgomery assembles both an anthropology of knowledge and an anthropology of Islam, demonstrating how individuals make sense of and draw meanings from their environments. He reveals subtle individual interpretations of the religion and how people seek to define themselves and their lives as "good" within their communities and under Islam. Based on numerous in-depth interviews, bolstered by extensive survey and data collection, Montgomery offers the most thorough English-language study to date of Islam in post-Soviet Kyrgyzstan. His work provides a broad view into the cognitive processes of Central Asian populations that will serve students, researchers, and policymakers alike.

General Montgomery lead the 8th Army to victory at El Alamein in 1942, and as Chief of Land Forces in the Allied invasion of Normandy in 1944 he received Germany's surrender in 1945. Concentrating on the momentous events of Operation Overlord from June 1944, The Lonely Leader follws Monty's leadership of the Allied offensive to Luneburg Heath the following May. Monty is a figure renowned for his military professionalism, but Alistair Horne, in association with montgomery's only son, also look at the human face of a man regarded as rather Cromwellian, considering his style of command in the context of the tactics and politics of the period, not least his controversial dealings with Eisenhower.This is a compelling account of the public and private influences of a remarkable military leader.

This study addresses a long-standing mythology concerning the "Unfinished" Symphony and reviews anachronistic performance practices that prevent listeners from experiencing the work as a product of its own time. David Montgomery’s Unfinished History challenges the traditional story of Franz Schubert’s B-minor Symphony and searches for a more credible account of this great work. Written for all Schubert lovers from lay readers to musicians and musicologists, the book reviews a strangely persistent mythology concerning the symphony, continuing with the first in-depth examination of its manuscript and related documents. Details of handwriting, notation, paper, watermarks, compositional procedures, and stylistic contexts suggest a new year and country of origin for the “Unfinished” Symphony, a possible explanation for the absence of a finale in the sketches, and an alternative account of the score’s disappearance and prolonged sequestration. The author concludes with an essay on performing the work in the context of its own times. The story of the Unfinished has been based partly upon three conflicting letters written in old age by Schubert’s former secretary long after the composer’s death. A fourth document in this insupportable mythology is a photograph of a lost letter purportedly sent from Schubert to the Styrian Music Society in Graz, promising to send them a symphony. Many historians still believe the letter to be genuine, despite the fact that its signature has been traced. David Montgomery’s handwriting analysis finally identifies the real writer of this odd missive, clearing a further path to new research.

L’avènement de l’agriculture s’est accompagné du plus ancien problème de la civilisation : la destruction des sols. Le travail du sol, s’il o ffrait des solutions à court terme, a aussi détruit durablement la capacité nourricière de grandes civilisations qui ontpériclité du fait de cette exploitation abusive des terres. La dégradation continue de l’humus, le climat en mutation et la croissance démographique nous font aujourd’hui courir le risque de répéter cette histoire ancienne à échelle mondiale.Mais il y a des raisons d’espérer. David R. Montgomery a sillonné la planète à la rencontre d’agriculteurs qui renversent la vapeur en faisant de l’amélioration des sols une conséquence – et non plus une victime – de la production agricole. Qu’ils soient dans le monde développé ou en développement, sur de grandes exploitations ou de petites fermes familiales, ces agriculteurs sont au coeur d’une nouvelle révolution agricole qui pourrait ramener nos sols malades à la vie à une vitesse remarquable. Cultiver la révolutiondétaille le travail de ces pionniers et prouve qu’il est réplicable à grande échelle. Ce que l’humain a détruit – le sol – l’humain peut reconstruire en quelques années, infi niment plus rapidement que ne le ferait la nature.Dépassant les clivages traditionnels entre agricultures conventionnelle et biologique, Montgomery explore comment les pratiques fondées sur les principes de l’agriculture de conservationrestaurent la santé et la fertilité des sols, étou ent les mauvaises herbes, suppriment les ravageurs et réduisent ou suppriment les besoins en intrants – le tout en maintenant les rendements des cultures et en augmentant les revenus des producteurs.Que vous soyez agriculteur, éleveur ou citoyen préoccupé par les questions environnementales et alimentaires, ce livre saura vous apporter un nouveau sou e en vous montrant qu’il existe des voies de changement applicables, viables et souhaitables. Rejoignezla révolution !
