Excerpt from Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration
Studies of the sort made by Mr. Knoop in this essay are more urgently needed at the present time than they have been in most periods of our history. In saying this I am aware that the man who tries to judge relatively the magnitude of the problems of his own times is liable to become the victim of illusion. His interest in the social questions just before him imparts to them a vividness and Impressiveness in com parison With which the past is dull, and he 18 led -to feel, as hundreds of others have felt before, that he stands on the threshold of a new era. But, these considerations notwithstanding, it does seem as if the present age would be distinguished in history by the economic changes that took place in it and the attempts that were made to deal with social diffities. In the field of industry we are faced by the trust which, if not new, is at least more.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly examines the ways in which conciliation and arbitration can be used to settle labor disputes, and also provides many historical examples for further understanding. The author begins by establishing the difference between these two approaches, arguing that conciliation involves discussion and settlement between the parties themselves while arbitration brings in an outside, authoritative figure. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, and the author provides many historical examples to illustrate this. The author also discusses the broader context in which labor disputes occur, and how the development of factory systems led to the development of labor unions. The author argues that these methods are among the only ways to solve problems that arise from the ongoing evolution of the modern economy, making this a critical read for anyone interested in labor history.
