Item description from seller

Paperback. "Employes' Representation in Coal Mines" offers an in-depth sociological and economic analysis of the Industrial Representation Plan implemented by the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. Written during a pivotal era in American labor history, this study examines the practical application of one of the earliest and most influential "company union" models. Benjamin M. Selekman investigates the complex dynamics between management and miners, evaluating whether such representation plans truly offered workers a voice or merely served as a mechanism for corporate control.The work provides a detailed look at the coal industry's operational challenges, the living conditions of miners, and the systemic grievances that led to significant labor unrest in the early 20th century. By documenting the successes and failures of the representation plan, Selekman provides valuable insights into the evolution of collective bargaining and industrial democracy. This book remains an essential resource for scholars of labor relations, historians of the American West, and those interested in the industrial history of the United States. Through rigorous research and first-hand observations, it illuminates the struggle for workers' rights and the search for industrial peace in a volatile sector of the economy.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
