Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Employers Associations in the United States: A Study of Typical Associations The justification for the appearance of this book must be found in the need for a treatise on employers associations. Books on trade unions exist in abundance, but no book heretofore has confined itself to a discussion of employers associations in the United States, or, for that matter, in any English-speaking country. Some of the books on trade unions, labor problems, and industrial relations have given a very brief treatment of the subject as incidental to an understanding of unionism. These brief treatments, however, have frequently been misleading, both as to the importance and character of the association movement. As to the gross neglect of the subject, an illustration of the situation will suffice at this point. If one were to consult the card catalogues of the chief libraries of the United States, such as the author has done,(e. g., the Congressional Library, the John Crerar Library, and the Library of the University of Chicago) he would probably find at this date that there was no text on the subject in English, and that the references were very meager indeed. Let him consult the references listed under trade unions, and the contrast will be marked. Of the two great rival forces, can the one be of such over-shadowing importance compared with the other? Does the relative social significance of trade unions and employers associations justify such discrimination? The association movement has been too important, has bad too profound an effect upon American institutions, has been of too great social significance to have deserved thus to be passed by almost unnoted.
