Excerpt from Questions of the Hour
OF the essays contained in this book the second Towards Peace in Industry - has already appeared in the columns of the Observer.1 The rest are now published for the first time. They are all the work of the last two years, and work undertaken, in the first instance, from an impulse of protest against some of the stunts of that distracting time. Thus their subject-matter is purely topical. But I venture to hope that they may not be found altogether topical in spirit. For my constant endeavour has been to grope my way, through the mist of current controversy, to some firm resting ground of principle. In that attempt I have, no doubt, achieved only a moder ate measure of success. But defective as I feel these essays to be, limited in scope, imperfect in arrangement and crabbed in style, they are yet the product of such an amount of hard thought on -my part, that they may be of aid to the thought of other men.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex set of issues surrounding the peacetime economics of industry. It was written in response to the widespread economic chaos that followed World War 1. The author argues that many of the economic woes attributed to the war are not the result of the war, but rather systemic issues within the organization of industry and society. Written in 1923, the book's insights hold valuable lessons for today's policymakers, economists, and business leaders. The author's controversial belief that economic growth can be found in reorienting efforts from consumption to production, and from a reliance on foreign goods to developing the talents and resources closer to home, will likely spark thoughtful discussion and debate.
