A Prelude to the Welfare State the Origins of Workers' Compensation
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr
- Publish date: 04/01/2000
In this highly original and persuasive work. Price V. Fishback and Shawn Everett Kantor challenge widespread historical perceptions, arguing that, rather than being an early progressive victory, workers' compensation succeeded because all relevant parties -- labor and management, insurance companies, lawyers, and legislators -- benefited from the legislation. Thorough, rigorous, and convincing, A Prelude to the Welfare State: The Origins of Workers' Compensation is a major reappraisal of the causes and consequences of a movement that ultimately transformed the nature of social insurance and the American workplace.
