Description
Excerpt from Labour in War Time
The present book has a strictly limited aim. It does not discuss in any way the question whether Great Britain's participation in the present war is right or wrong, either from the Labour or from any other standpoint. It aims merely at giving a short account of the manner in which the war has affected Labour and of the industrial problems to which it has given rise. The general question of "war and class-war" has been introduced only in so far as it is relevant to the determination of the attitude adopted by Labour during the war on industrial questions.
It is, of course, impossible for a book of this kind to be quite up-to-date. I have stopped with the passage of the Munitions Act.
