Kartoniert / Broschiert. Condition: New.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This academic text presents a novel approach to classifying employed Americans into distinct socio-economic groups. The author, a prominent statistician for the US Census Bureau, sought to categorize workers not by occupation, but by the social and economic standing each line of work generally held in the early 20th century. Hence, occupations like blacksmith, carpenter, and electrician are ranked among skilled workers; while factory and construction laborers are categorized as unskilled. This classification system sheds new light on the evolving nature of the American workforce over time, and especially how the social status of certain professions and roles transformed over the course of the 20th century. 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.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the evolution of child labor laws in Connecticut, starting from 1842. The author traces the journey of these laws from their humble beginnings, marked by lax enforcement and minimal impact, to their present form, characterized by stringent regulations and effective implementation. The book highlights the significant role of the State Board of Education and prominent citizens in shaping these laws, as well as the gradual rise in public awareness and support for child welfare. It explores the interplay between changing societal attitudes, economic factors, and the tireless efforts of activists in driving the evolution of these laws. The book also examines the challenges faced in enforcing these laws, including parental indifference, poverty, and resistance from employers, and discusses the strategies employed to overcome these obstacles. Ultimately, the book underscores the profound impact of these laws on improving the lives of children in Connecticut, ensuring their access to education and protecting them from exploitation.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an alphabetical index of occupations classified into social economic groups created with the assistance of designations from various occupational glossaries and other sources. It's a rearrangement of the 15th Census occupation classifications, with the addition of two more groups: "Indefinite, illegible, and unknown occupations" and "new workers." It features an occupational outline of the social, economic groups, industrial outline of the occupation classification, an alphabetical index of occupations with their symbols, and the industry index. Compiled by Alba M. Edwards, this book is grounded in skill concepts consistent with those in the 12th, 13th, and 14th Censuses of the United States, with the occupational designations supplemented by designations gleaned from various occupational glossaries and other sources.
