  • Product Description

    This study of the connection between industrial relations and the law during and directly after the First World War reconstructs the tensions between the corporatist aspirations of the state officials who drafted and attempted to enforce the Munitions Act, and the efforts of organized labor to defend its sectional interests against this corporatist thrust. Rubin analyzes the unions' partial success in turning the Tribunal into a forum for collective bargaining.
