A Prelude to the Welfare State: The Origins of Workers' Compensation - National Bureau of Economic Research Series on Long-Term Factors in Economi
Price V. Fishback
Presents a reappraisal of the causes and consequences of a movement that ultimately transformed the nature of social insurance and the American workplace. This book argues that workers' compensation, rather than being an early progressive victory, succeeded because all relevant parties - labor, lawyers, and legislators - benefited from the ruling.
