Description:

In exploring the rationale of the mob, Gilje brings to light the grievances that motivate its behavior and the historical circumstances that drive the choices it makes. He proposes four phases of rioting in American history, arguing that they reflect larger social and economic trends and developments. Gilje's lens reveals a distinctive view of the American people and their history. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.
