She particularly examines the long history of environmental pollution in the region and the state governments’ failure to address it—a failure that this political faction refuses to condemn.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eStrangers in Their Own Land\u003c\/i\u003e is a compelling analysis of one of the most important factors in American culture today, and Hochschild’s measured and empathic approach leads her readers toward a greater understanding of their fellow citizens.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e The summary and analysis in this ebook are intended to complement your reading experience and bring you closer to a great work of nonfiction.\u003cbr\u003e  ","brand":"Worth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131412005104,"sku":"9781504044936","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781504044936_p0.jpg?v=1769897518","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781504044936","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
