General Information

I am an emeritus professor of sociology at the University of California, San Diego. My continuing research interests are in social movements, including those related to food and labor. I am currently doing a cross-national analysis of the political directions taken by "alternative agriculture" movements in the 1920s-40s.

Recent publications

My new book compares and connects three eras of the U.S. food movement, the 1830s-40, the 1890s-1900s, and the 1960s-70s. It is published by Temple University Press.
