Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, within the broader political context of of U.S. anti-fascism, Brady developed a potent analysis of emerging autoritharian economic and cultural practices. This framework was substantially carried over, and further developed, by the two pioneers of the Political Economy approach, Dallas W. Smythe and Herbet I. Schiller.
