Industrial Arbitration in Great Britain (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781025400068)

"Industrial Arbitration in Great Britain" is a definitive study of the evolution of collective bargaining and dispute resolution mechanisms within the United Kingdom. Written by the esteemed Lord Amulree, who served as the first President of the Industrial Court, the work provides an authoritative account of the transition from informal labor negotiations to a structured system of industrial arbitration.

The text traces the historical development of labor law, examining the legislative milestones and social conditions that necessitated government intervention in industrial strife. It covers the rise of trade unions and employers' associations, analyzing how these parties interacted within the framework of various Conciliation Acts and the establishment of formal arbitration bodies.

This work is of significant value to scholars of economic history, labor law, and industrial relations. It offers a unique perspective on the challenges of maintaining industrial peace in a changing economic landscape. By detailing the principles of both voluntary and compulsory arbitration, "Industrial Arbitration in Great Britain" serves as an essential record of the legal and social efforts to harmonize the interests of labor and capital during a formative era in British history.
