Money Politics before the New Deal with Jakob Feinig

Published: Aug. 30, 2019, 3 p.m.

Jakob Feinig, assistant professor of human development at Binghamton University, joins us to discuss the history of political organizing and activism around money in the United States, from the pre-Revolutionary period to the New Deal era. Characterized alternately by periods of widespread \u201csilencing\u201d and mass mobilization, the history of money politics that Feinig documents in his research has much to tell us about the present and future of the modern money movement. For more about the history of money politics, see Jakob\u2019s research on money politics in Sociological Theory and The Journal of Historical Sociology.
