Wright Mills wrote three books directed toward the American labor movement, white collar workers and the apathetic American. During his first few years at Columbia University, Mills worked with a network of academics researching the major social and economic changes facing union workers for labor union leaders. Mills wrote “The New Men of Power: American’s Labor Leaders” in 1948 (it was republished in 2001) based on his survey of 500 labor leaders. In this book, Mills outlined a radical labor-based agenda that expanded the New Deal concepts and called for the end of the arms race and an economy based on preparing for war.
