Studies in American Trade Unionism (Classic Reprint) by Jacob H. Hollander Pdf
Excerpt from Studies in American Trade Unionism But much more than the lessening interest of other prob lems, it has, Of course, been the increasing intrinsic im portance of the labor question that really explains the present. Popular absorption in the subject. The marvellous indus trial expansion of the United States in the past decade has been accompanied by a notable change in the quality Of the productive factors. Labor, as an industrial agent, no. Less than capital, has become almost a new thing under an Old name. The familiar problems of the labor world have taken on a more intense phase, and a whole array of new questions challenge attention. Of these labor problems, trade unionism is far and away the most important. Broadly understood, American trade unionism is the Merican labor problem; and, in a narrow acceptation, trade-union policy and practice impinge at some point or other upon such specific social problems as immigration, child-labor, employers' liability, and methods Of industrial remuneration.
