Excerpt from On the History and Development of Gilds, and the Origin of Trade-Unions What I Offer to the reader in the following pages is by no means a history of Gilds, complete and exhaustive. My desire has been simply to give a clear idea as to what the various kinds of Gilds were, and to sketch in free outlines how each kind of Gilds originated, grew powerful, and degenerated; on which the Gilds of another class of citizens took their place. I have always taken special care to point out the analogies between the Old Gilds and those existing in our days among working-men, the Trade Unions and I shall indeed consider it the greatest reward for all my labour spent on this work, if it contributes to set the Trade Unions in a truer light.

There is perhaps no area of British life where attitudes are more strongly influenced by shared traditions and past experiences than the trade union movement; the memory of the working-class movements is a long one. It is therefore all the more important in the light of recent events to examine the origins and development of trade-union organization over the decades if we are to understand the unions of today, which have emerged as one of the most crucial and strongest elements in the economy. This book is the product of twenty years’ detailed research and general reflection on the course of trade-union development, and ranges over the whole field of British trade-union history, from the early craft societies to the structure of modern trade unionism. It begins by illuminating the problems associated with researching and writing in this field, and goes on to trace the main trends of trade-union development, linking these with modern trade-union problems. Particular attention is paid to some of the important aspects of this history – the Owenite period, the so-called New Model unions, the origins of the Trades Union Congress, and more recent changes in trade-union organization. These themes are woven into a broad study which includes detailed investigation of individual trade unions (particularly the printing unions, and also an early employers association) with a general review of the whole movement. Trade-union history is closely bound up with social conditions, and Professor Musson also examines a number of such related aspects as the struggle for a free press, the origins of the co-operative movement and the early factory system. This classic book was first published in 1974.

Excerpt from The Closed Shop in American Trade Unions The primary aim of the present study is to set forth the facts concerning the closed shop. It is proposed, first, to trace the manner in which the closed-shop rule developed among the early trade societies in America, and to disclose the motives which led to its incorporation into trade-union policy. Secondly, the history of the closed-shop movement will be set forth. The relative importance attached to the enforcement of the closed shop at various stages in our industrial development and the efforts which employers have made to check its operation will be shown. Next, the forms of the closed shop as they exist in various unions will be described. This analysis will make clear what the closed shop is and how far exclusion from employment is involved in its working. The manner in which the closed shop is established and the methods by which it is enforced will then engage our attention. When the closed shop has thus been described in detail, it will be possible in succeeding chapters to study its value as a trade-union device and its economic import.

Excerpt from Beneficiary Features of American Trade Unions The American trade unions have developed beneficiary functions far more slowly than the trade unions of England and Germany. Only since about 1880 has there been any considerable increase in such activities. Prior to that time the national unions with few exceptions paid no benefits}l The local unions, here and there, developed beneficiary sys tems, but these were not continuous nor, in many cases, important. The history Of trade - union beneficiary activities in the United States may be roughly divided into three periods. In the first, extending from the beginning Of the century to about 1830, the local associations laid great stress on their beneficiary functions. The societies of printers organized from 1794 to 1815 in the most important American cities were typical of the period. In all of them, as far as the extant records show, the beneficiary functions were regarded as equally important with the trade-regulating activities. American trade unionism owed its origin as much to the desire to associate for mutual insurance as to the desire to establish trade rules.

Excerpt from Trade Unions The present little book owes its composition to the friendly importunities of the editor of the series, and not to any desire on the part of the author to volunteer enlightenment on so difficult a subject; but it claims to be an attempt to hold the balance level between the two parties to the Labour Contract - the Employer and the Employed - whose relations, be it remarked, are better in Great Britain than in any other country in the world. The subject is not only difficult, it is also a matter of the most serious consequence. The working classes are taking from day to day a greater interest and a greater share in the government of the British Empire. The trade union is the school in which the pick of these men have learnt the earliest lessons of public life.

Excerpt from Trade Unionism New and Old All that I desire to add has been compressed into a Supplementary Chapter, in which the several controversial points are dealt with, and statistics are brought upto date. The book was written in the heat of controversies to which illusion is made, the somewhat severe criticisms being justified by the then facts and circumstances. If they now appear to be harsh, it is because the policy then denounced has been abandoned, or so modified as to be no longer open to the condemnation then pronounced.

The author of this British book states that "The reader must not expect to find, in this historical volume, either an analysis of Trade Union organisation, policy, and methods, or any judgment upon the validity of its assumptions, its economic achievements, or its limitations." The book instead explains how, since the original publication of the book in 1890, the trade union movement has grown to encompass 60% of all workers, and how it may now form the foundation for a new political party.

Excerpt from The Amalgamated Wood Workers' International Union of America: A Historical Study of Trade Unionism in Its Relation to the Development of an Industry This thesis proceeds upon the idea that an intensive study of the origin and development Of an individual union will reveal to the best advantage the principles of unionism, and the work ings of organized labor. Unionism is regarded as a social phe nomenon which requires for a clear understanding Of its social importance, the same sort of treatment that has been given to other social institutions. The economist, in his study Of'society, should lay bare the institutions of society and show their social significance in much the same way in which the surgeon lays bare the organs of the human body in order to understand their functions. By applying this method of investigation to this sub jcet, there appear two points Of view from which to consider the union. In the first place, the union may be regarded as a social institution, having very definite relations to other institutions Of society, as for example, the relation of the union to the state, or, in a more restricted sense, the relation of one union to an other. Secondly, the structure of the organization may be stud ied, that is, its legislative, financial, and judicial systems, - also its industrial policy and the relation of this policy to the 'indus try itself. These are questions with which an analytical study of a union will concern itself, and which, it is believed, will throw light upon the larger problems of organized labor.
