The Case of Bituminous Coal

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Case of Bituminous Coal' is a rigorous economic investigation into the complexities and structural challenges of the American coal industry during the early twentieth century. Authored by the prominent economist Walton Hale Hamilton, this work analyzes the chaotic state of coal production and distribution, framing the industry as a critical problem in social and economic control. The text explores how overcapacity, intense competition, and fluctuating demand created a cycle of instability that affected both the market and the livelihoods of those working within it.Hamilton provides a detailed critique of industrial inefficiency, examining the tension between private enterprise and the public interest. By focusing on the bituminous coal sector, the author delves into broader themes of resource management, labor conditions, and the need for rational organization in essential industries. This volume serves as a significant historical resource for understanding the development of American economic policy and the evolution of energy markets. It remains an essential read for scholars of industrial history, economic theory, and the social impacts of natural resource extraction, offering a profound look at the intersection of law, economics, and human welfare.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
