The Social Law of Labor, written by William Babcock Weeden and originally published in 1882, is a historical analysis of the relationship between labor and social class in the United States. Weeden's book explores the social and economic forces that shaped the labor movement in the late 19th century, including the rise of industrial capitalism, the emergence of trade unions, and the struggle for workers' rights.Drawing on extensive research and firsthand accounts, Weeden argues that the social law of labor is a fundamental principle that governs the relationship between workers and employers. This law, he contends, is based on the idea that labor is a commodity that is subject to the same economic laws as any other product. However, Weeden also argues that labor is unique in that it is intimately tied to the social status of workers, and that the social and economic factors that shape this relationship must be taken into account when analyzing the labor market.Throughout the book, Weeden examines the history of labor in the United States, from the early days of colonialism to the rise of the industrial revolution. He explores the struggles of workers to organize and demand better working conditions, and the response of employers and government officials to these demands. Weeden also analyzes the impact of immigration, race, and gender on the labor market, and the ways in which these factors have shaped the social law of labor over time.Ultimately, The Social Law of Labor is a groundbreaking work that offers a comprehensive analysis of the history of labor in the United States, and provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing workers and employers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
