Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book comprises the second interim report of the Civil War Workers Committee, established after World War 1 to address unemployment and the transition of workers from war to peacetime occupations. The report examines two categories of workers: those engaged in war production, and those who replaced others who had joined the military. It scrutinizes the feasibility of extending unemployment insurance to include these groups, but finds that the lack of distinction between war and non-war work, and the varying impact of unemployment across industries, makes this impractical. The report proposes instead a general scheme of insurance applicable to all employees, arguing that the reconstruction period requires universal coverage against unemployment risks. The author emphasizes the importance of avoiding the haphazard methods of relief that have marked previous crises, and instead establishing a systematic and equitable system of support that will prevent destitution and preserve self-respect among workers.
