Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Labour Legislation, Labour Movements and Labour Leaders AS references are frequently made, especially during election times, to the respective political parties by whom legislation for labour was carried, it was often suggested to me that I should tell the story as I knew the facts. But I always refused because the whole truth cannot be told from a party point of view. I had, nevertheless, resolved to tell the story from an independent standpoint as early as 1880, but the work was deferred for various reasons until I had more leisure. The story of Labour´s struggles, its victories and defeats; the fierce contests which for centuries were waged against it to keep it in subjection; and its resistance from time to time, involving suffering, privation, prosecution, and persecution required to be told, for it finds no place in the so-called "Histories of England." For half a century my lot has been cast amid those struggles; and I have, as best I could, contributed to the amelioration of the hard conditions under which working men still suffered fifty years ago, to emancipate themselves from which they fought and strove against the oppressive forces opposed to them. The following work is an attempt to trace progressive legislation from the date of the first repeal of the Combination Laws in 1824 to the present time. In order to do so it was necessary to indicate generally, but clearly, the nature of the laws adverse to labour as they existed at the close of the eighteenth and during the first quarter of the nineteenth century.
