Product Description
Excerpt from The Double Edge of Labor's Sword: Discussion and Testimony on Socialism and Trade-Unionism Before the Commission on Industrial Relations
It was one of the most striking measures of modern legislation involving, as it did, an official recognition of the existence of a general and chronic industrial nu rest and representing the first attempt at a general stock-taking of industrial conditions and relations in the United States.
The act specified that the Commission Shall be composed of nine persons, to be appointed by the President of the United States, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate; not less than three of whomshall be employers of labor and not less than three of whom shall be representatives of organized labor.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a record of the public hearings held in 1914 by the Commission on Industrial Relations, a body created by Congress to investigate the general condition of labor in the United States. The hearings included testimony from the leaders of the American Federation of Labor (AFL), the Socialist Party, and the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), who presented their perspectives on the challenges facing the American labor movement at the beginning of the twentieth century. The book delves into the complex relationship between the AFL, a trade union federation focused on improving wages and working conditions through collective bargaining, and the Socialist Party, a political party advocating for the eventual replacement of capitalism with a socialist system. The author explores the tension between the AFL's emphasis on immediate, practical gains for workers and the Socialist Party's commitment to a more radical transformation of society. Through the insights offered by these labor leaders, this book provides a valuable historical account of the struggles and aspirations of the American working class during a period of significant social and economic change. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331479031_0
