Description

Quality Digitally Remastered(tm) reprint of one of the classic works of legal and social history. This much-cited study of Woodrow Wilson and his administration explores the suppression of speech and print publication during an era of world war, the Red Scare, anti-foreign fervor, and unionism. Wilson's notable achievements in social leadership and the progressive movement are questioned in light of his failure to protect civil liberties amidst the tide of war fever, nationalism, racism, and protection of corporate interests. Worse, his own administration, through the Justice Department and the Postmaster General, took ruthless and often spurious actions to repress liberties, as shown by prodigious research and tables of prosecutions and dispositions of anti-speech legal actions. Toward the end of his administration, as he was rendered weak and distant by stroke, there is no doubt he turned a blind eye to vicious governmental behavior, but Scheiber showed that long before, for whatever reasons or focus Wilson had on World War I and the League of Nations, the blind eye and perhaps active involvement began. A classic, fascinating study by one of the most decorated and honored legal historians, this book is accessible and clear to scholars and history fans everywhere and is not written particularly for lawyers or law students.
