Labour Before the Law: The Regulation of Workers' Collective Action in Canada, 1900-1948

by Judy Fudge and Eric Tucker

Book Overview

This book examines industrial relations in Canada between 1900-1948. This formative period in Canada's labor history was marked by strikes, violent confrontations, lockouts, union organizing drives, and major judicial decisions. The authors examine these events, which helped change the country's labor regime from one of liberal voluntarism to industrial pluralism.
