The Slavery of Labor, written by William Bell Robertson and published in 1906, presents a scientific argument for the idea that free labor is essentially the same as slave labor. Robertson argues that the capitalist system of labor exploitation has created a situation in which workers are effectively enslaved to their employers, even if they are technically free to leave their jobs. He contends that the wage system is a form of bondage that is just as oppressive as chattel slavery, and that the only solution is to abolish the wage system altogether and replace it with a system of cooperative labor. The book is a powerful critique of the capitalist system and a call to action for workers to unite and fight for their rights. It is an important work in the history of labor theory and socialist thought, and remains relevant to contemporary debates about economic inequality and exploitation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
