The most detailed study of the Chicago Riots of 1919 is Tuttle's Race Riot: Chicago in the Red Summer. In the division between popular and elite reactions to the Chicago riots during the Democratic Convention, he sees an early symptom of what has become a lasting division on issues of law and order; and in the assassination of Robert Kennedy he sees the fateful removal from the scene of the one leader of the majority party who seemed capable of combining popular values with a mastery of elite politics. |
