"Liberation movements leveraged what participation in the political process they were able to achieve to implement reforms, like a 40-hour work week."

This is the weak link in the chain. What's so liberationist about protectionism? Looks more like the same kind of consolidation of power any group engages in once ensconced. Calcified with illiberalism, the Steel Belt degenerated into the Rust Belt only for the lesson to remain unlearned.
