The experience of the Depression, closely followed by the mass mobilization of the workforce during the Second World War and later by the economic optimism of the postwar years, provided the impetus that led to a restructuring of the relationship between labour and the state. In Harnessing Labour Confrontation, Peter S. McInnis examines the reformation of Canadian society and its industrial-relations regime from the perspective of labour organizations and their supporters and from that of government and business. What results is a synthesis of labour and political history in which the author analyses the role of debate and confrontation in the formation of the national postwar compromise and in the birth of the modern welfare state." "McInnis explores the constraints and possibilities that faced the labour movement in that era, as well as the conditions that give rise to industrial legality. He identifies the factors affecting the postwar compromise, including the divided jurisdiction between federal and provincial governments, the return to gender-biased social norms, a developing Cold War climate of national insecurity, and a promise of strong consumer purchasing power based on postwar wage and benefit packages. A formative moment in Canadian history, the 1940s left as a legacy not only the welfare state but also the legal framework that has defined organized labour for five decades."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1900 - 1999|2fast 650 0 Industrial relations|zCanada|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008104548|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Labor policy|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85073718|zCanada|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79007233-781|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Labor unions|zCanada|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009128451|y20th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012476 650 7 Industrial relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 971609 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Labor policy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/990116 650 7 Labor unions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/990260 651 7 Canada.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204310 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMcInnis, Peter S.
