Synopsis

Explore how unions, arbitration, and laws shape wages, hours, and workplace fairness in modern societies.

This book offers a clear view of how labor markets are governed and improved through collective action and legal frameworks.

Brentano surveys the historical development of labor regulation, from factory laws to trades unions and courts of arbitration. He explains how workers and employers alike gain protection and influence when labor contracts are shaped by both legislatures and worker-organized bodies. The work combines economic principles with practical insights into how policy and self-help interact to raise living standards and fairness at work.

Readers will gain a grounded understanding of the forces that determine pay, work time, and job security. The discussion connects theory to real-world systems that regulate the sale of labor, the balance of power in the workplace, and the pursuit of a more just economy.

  • How unions and arbitration courts operate to set wages and working hours
  • The role of factory and labor legislation in protecting workers
  • The relationship between authority, competition, and association in the labor market

Ideal for readers of economic history and policy, this edition will appeal to anyone seeking a concise, clear account of how labor and law shape everyday work life.
