About this product

Product Information

Today, most Americans lack constitutional rights on the job. Instead of enjoying free speech or privacy, they can be fired for almost any reason or no reason at all. This book uses history to explain why. It takes readers back to the 1930s and 1940s when advocates across the political spectrum - labor leaders, civil rights advocates, and conservatives opposed to government regulation - set out to enshrine constitutional rights in the workplace. The book tells their interlocking stories of fighting for constitutional protections for American workers, recovers their surprising successes, explains their ultimate failure, and helps readers assess this outcome.

Reviews
"A nuanced narrative history of 1930s-1980s campaigns to extend constitutional rights to private-sector workers both inside and outside labor unions, and to thereby create what Lee calls a 'workplace constitution' ... provides a rich history of conservatives' legal theories of government power over the workplace - from the open shop movement to opposition to affirmative action ... her focus on administrative agencies reframes histories of court decisions and extends the history of fair employment litigation well past the 1940s era ..." Trevor Griffey, The Journal of American History, "A superb and compelling account of the long-running quest for constitutional rights in the workplace since the 1930s. Relying on extensive archival research, Lee offers two intertwined legal stories that enrich but also complicate our vision of twentieth-century political history." Jean-Christian Vinel, The American Historical Review, "The Workplace Constitution from the New Deal to the New Right is both ambitious and important - it moves across time and among a variety of individuals, organizations, and government entities, and it utilizes a wide range of archival material - all of keen interest to historians, legal scholars, and political scientists alike. Lee's formidable intelligence gives us new insights, as well as historical and historiographical surprises." Risa L. Goluboff, John Allan Love Professor of Law and Justice Thurgood Marshall Distinguished Professor of Law, University of Virginia, "Lee's magnificent book interweaves the histories of the civil rights and right-to-work movements ... will certainly spark further inquiry by students and scholars of civil rights, labor, constitutional law, conservatism, and the administrative state." Deborah Dinner, Law and History Review
