Michael Mark Cohen is associate teaching professor in American studies and African American studies at the University of California, Berkeley.
"Cohen draws upon a strong archival base and an impressively wide range of texts to provide an illuminating analysis of how the politics of conspiracy was central to this era's culture of popular radicalism."--Shelley Streeby, author of Radical Sensations: World Movements, Violence, and Visual Culture "As the subtitle suggests, [Cohen's] ambitious, well-documented study explores the nexus between law, violence, and popular radicalism in an era when near-monopolistic conditions prevailed in the battle between labor and capital."--CHOICE "Examin[ing] the conspiracy rhetoric of the American Left as part of an interlocking system of political thinking that enmeshed both radicals and corporate conservatives . . . Cohen ably analyzes the contours and dynamics of a dialectic of conspiracy rhetoric that spun into powerful worldviews fueled by the periodic unmasking of actual conspiracies on both sides."--The Journal of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era
