The Labor Amendment: Our Next Great Job (1910)

By Alexander Schlesinger

Book Overview

The Labor Amendment: Our Next Great Job is a book written by Alexander Schlesinger and published in 1910. The book advocates for the passage of a constitutional amendment that would protect the rights of American workers. Schlesinger argues that the current legal framework is inadequate to prevent employers from exploiting their employees and that a constitutional amendment is necessary to ensure fair treatment and just compensation for all workers. The book provides a detailed analysis of the problems facing American workers at the time, including low wages, long working hours, and unsafe working conditions. Schlesinger also offers a vision for what a future with a labor amendment might look like, including increased unionization and collective bargaining power for workers. The book is a call to action for all Americans who care about the rights of workers and the future of the American economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
