Political and Industrial Democracy, 1776-1926 is a comprehensive historical analysis of the evolution of democracy in the United States during the period from the American Revolution to the early 20th century. The author, W. Jett Lauck, examines the political and economic forces that shaped the development of democracy in America, including the rise of industrialization and the emergence of labor unions.Lauck's book explores the tension between political democracy, which emphasizes the importance of individual rights and freedoms, and industrial democracy, which emphasizes the importance of collective bargaining and worker rights. He argues that these two forms of democracy are interconnected and that their development has been shaped by a complex set of social, economic, and political factors.The book is divided into three parts. The first part examines the origins of political democracy in America, including the development of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The second part focuses on the rise of industrial democracy, including the growth of labor unions and the struggle for worker rights. The final part explores the tension between political and industrial democracy, including the role of government in regulating the economy and protecting individual rights.Throughout the book, Lauck draws on a wide range of primary sources, including government documents, newspapers, and personal accounts, to provide a rich and detailed portrait of the evolution of democracy in America. Political and Industrial Democracy, 1776-1926 is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of American democracy and the ongoing struggle for social and economic justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
