What is Organizing for Power : Building a 21st Century Labor Movement in Boston about?

<p><strong>Boston&rsquo;s economy has become defined by a disconcerting trend that has intensified throughout much of the United States since the 2008 recession.</strong> Economic growth now delivers remarkably few benefits to large sectors of the working class &ndash; a phenomenon that is particularly severe for immigrants, people of color, and women. <em>Labor in 21<sup>st</sup> Century Boston</em> explores this nation-wide phenomenon of &ldquo;unshared growth&rdquo; by focusing on Boston, a city that is famously liberal, relatively wealthy, and increasingly difficult for working people (who service the city&rsquo;s needs) to actually live in.<br /><br /><em>Labor in 21<sup>st</sup> Century Boston</em> is the only comprehensive analysis of labor and popular mobilizing in Boston today, the volume contributes to a growing body of academic and popular literature that examines urban America, racial and economic inequality, labor and immigration, and the right-wing assault on working people.</p>
