Explore a bold plan to reshape how trades work and how prices are found. This book lays out the New Trades Combination Movement, a practical approach to reduce cut‑throat competition by group action and shared cost knowledge. It argues for fair profits, fair wages, and a stronger link between business and the public good.
The text frames a system where costs are taken and analyzed by a whole trade, not just by individual firms. It describes how manufacturers of all sizes can cooperate, exchange ideas, and set common standards to prevent unfair practices. The author connects these ideas to broader questions about justice, industry, and consumer interests, offering a historical and practical look at a changing economy.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed plan for reforming the cutthroat business practices prevalent in many industries. Criticizing the ineffectiveness of state intervention, the author presents a radical alternative to the "labour war" and proposes methods to regulate selling prices through voluntary cooperation between manufacturers and workers. The scheme has already been successfully implemented in the metallic bedstead trade and is expanding into other sectors, improving wages and working conditions while maintaining fair returns for businesses. Despite initial scepticism, the combination movement has gained traction due to its proven ability to address the unsustainable competition that has plagued numerous trades, leading to bankruptcies and worker exploitation. The book provides a comprehensive explanation of the principles and methods of this innovative approach, offering a path towards a more stable and equitable trading landscape.
