Gender and the American Temperance Movement of the Nineteenth Century
Symbolic Crusade
Author: Joseph R. Gusfield
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 9780252013126
Category : Prohibition
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
The important role of the Temperance movement throughout American history is analyzed as clashes and conflicts between rival social systems, cultures, and status groups. Sometimes the "dry" is winning the classic battle for prestige and political power. Sometimes, as in today's society, he is losing. This significant contribution to the theory of status conflict also discloses the importance of political acts as symbolic acts and offers a dramatistic theory of status politics, Gusfield provides a useful addition to the economic and psychological modes of analysis current in the study of political and social movements.
