The Detroit Model
Description

Delving into Immigration Bureau files, migrant letters, and unexplored Ford Motor Company records, Greer Golda examines debates over family order, sexual relationships, race and labor relations, immigration policy, and the status of women. She illustrates how businessmen, government officials, white women, native-born workers, immigrants, and Black Detroiters challenged each other for the power to define the contours of the new American city. Ultimately, the Americanization programs prevailed, and their conservative values enabled the Cold War consensus to gain popularity. As The Detroit Model contends, the backlash to shifting demographics in Detroit shaped American life for decades to come.
