Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the statutes regulating the hours of labor for women and children in Massachusetts textile mills. It places the enactment of these laws within the broader historical context of the fight to improve working conditions in the United States, and the drive to limit the exploitation of women and children in the workplace. The author shows how the Massachusetts statutes were influenced by the broader labor movement, and how they became a model for similar legislation in other states. The book also explores the tensions between the desire to protect workers and the need to maintain a competitive business environment, and how these tensions shaped the development of labor law in the United States.
