The International Labor Organization

"The International Labor Organization; A Study of Labor and Capital in Cooperation" provides an in-depth analysis of the formative years and underlying philosophy of the International Labor Organization (ILO). Written during a pivotal era of industrial transition following the First World War, Paul Perigord explores the mechanisms through which labor and capital can achieve productive cooperation on a global scale. The work details the historical necessity of international labor legislation and the role of the ILO in fostering social justice as a foundation for universal peace.Perigord examines the structure and functions of the organization, highlighting its unique tripartite nature which brings together governments, employers, and workers. By analyzing the social and economic challenges of the early 20th century, the book offers a scholarly look at the evolution of labor rights and the shift toward collective bargaining and international standards. This study remains a significant historical document for those interested in industrial relations, political science, and the history of international diplomacy. It serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding how institutional frameworks were established to mediate the often-conflicting interests of industry and the workforce, aiming for a more equitable global economy.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
