Abstract

This substantial and scholarly work by Professor Milton Derber deals with the concept of industrial democracy and its evolution in the United States during the period from 1865–1965—a momentous century that included the ending of the Civil War, the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, World War I, the slump of 1929–34, World War II, conflict in Korea and Vietnam and ironically enough the assassination of John F. Kennedy. It also includes the emergence of giants on the U.S. economic scene—Carnegie, Rockefeller, Ford, Vanderbilt and John L. Lewis the prominent labour leader.
