Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Documentary History of American Industrial Society, Vol. 3 Volumes III and IV are intended to place in the hands of students of industrial and legal history all of the reports on labor conspiracy cases in the United States during the period ending with the notable decision of Justice Shaw of Massachusetts in Commonwealth v. Hunt, 1842.These cases turned upon the important question known to-day as the "open" or "closed shop," that is, the refusal to work with nonunion men. Several of the cases, beginning with the Philadelphia Cordwainers in 1806, are reprints of the stenographers´ reports of the testimony, and these bring out, not only the legal questions involved, but also firsthand, detailed descriptions of the industrial and commercial conditions of the time. These reports were privately printed and sold to the public on the strength of their novelty and the interest aroused by the new labor movement which culminated in 1836. An extended search has been made for these reports, and in some instances but one copy was found in existence. A few libraries, whose catalogues included the titles, could not locate the reports. The present volume makes them accessible to all libraries and students. In each instance practically the entire report is reprinted verbatim including errors, and the bracket paging gives the original. Omissions indicated are either legal repetition or irrelevant matters as explained in editors brackets or in the footnotes.
