This book explains how the new business rhetoric of the 1920s, especially the term 'racketeering', prompted Americans to conflate organised crime and organised labour. The struggle between craftsmen, corporations and reformers shaped American law, as tradesmen helped create new anti-racketeering laws and New Deal industrial policies during the 1930s.
