Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Conflicts of Capital and Labour: Historically and Economically Considered; Being a History and Review of the Trade Unions of Great Britain Showing Their Origin, Progress, Constitution, and Objects in Their Political, Social, Economical and Industrial Aspects The first edition of this work was published about twelve years ago - in 1878. In revising it for reissue I have been forcibly struck with the enormous changes which have taken place as regards industrial questions. So great have they been that the work has had to be practically rewritten. Then trade unions were denounced in the press, on the platform, in the pulpit, and in parliament; not occasionally, but constantly, persistently, and virulently. Many of the attacks to which allusion is made in the text appeared during the year in which the book was being written. One specimen only is preserved of the rancorous onslaughts on trade unionists so common in 1877 and in previous years. Now trade unions are bepraised and commended by all sorts and conditions of men. Their influence is sought socially and politically, and combination is preached as the one great panacea for all kinds of social evils, even by the Lord´s Committee on "Sweating." It might, perhaps, be thought egotistical were I to claim some share in effecting this change in public opinion.
