Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The German Workman: A Study in National Efficiency Speaking in the Reichstag on February 6, 1906, Count Posadowsky, the Imperial Minister of the Interior, said: - "If Germany has just experienced a vast industrial expansion equalled by no other country in the world during the same time, it is chiefly due to the efficiency of its workers. But this efficiency must inevitably have suffered had we not secured to our working classes, by the social legislation of recent years, a tolerable standard of life, and had we not, so far as was possible, guaranteed their physical health. Quite recently a representative of the chemical industry assured me of this in eloquent words." In truth eloquence is not needed to enforce a truth which cannot have escaped the attention of any careful student of German social legislation and social reform institutions. Nevertheless, Count Posadowsky´s words may aptly serve as a motto for the present volume, since they exactly define the standpoint from which the writer approached his task.
