Free Institutions And The Quest For Security: The Development Of Workmen's Compensation In The U.S.A. by S. Bruce Black is a comprehensive study of the history and evolution of workmen's compensation in the United States. The book examines the social, political, and economic factors that led to the creation of this important safety net for workers, as well as the challenges and controversies that have arisen over the years.Starting with the early industrial era, the author traces the development of workmen's compensation from its origins in the late 19th century to the present day. He shows how the system has been shaped by a variety of factors, including the labor movement, the business community, and government regulators. The book also explores the impact of changing social attitudes towards work and labor, as well as the role of technology and globalization in shaping the modern workplace.Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of free institutions and the quest for security in shaping the development of workmen's compensation. He argues that this system is a crucial component of a free and democratic society, providing a safety net for workers while also promoting economic growth and stability.Overall, Free Institutions And The Quest For Security is an important and timely book that sheds light on the history and evolution of workmen's compensation in the United States. It will be of interest to scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersection of labor, economics, and social policy.Delivered At The 1951 Massachusetts Dinner Of The The Newcomen Society In Boston.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
