Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Some Folks Won't Work' is a seminal sociological examination of unemployment in industrial America during the late 1920s and the onset of the Great Depression. Written by Clinch Calkins, the work provides a poignant and data-driven rebuttal to the prevailing social stigma that joblessness was merely a result of personal failure or laziness. Through a series of compelling case studies and statistical observations, Calkins illustrates the systemic economic forces that leave able-bodied workers without means of support.The book explores the devastating impact of cyclical economic downturns on family life, health, and social stability, highlighting the human cost of industrial instability. By documenting the lived experiences of those struggling to find labor in a shifting economy, 'Some Folks Won't Work' serves as a critical historical document that influenced early 20th-century social policy and labor reform. It remains a powerful testament to the necessity of social safety nets and provides a profound understanding of the complexities of the labor market and the social structures that govern it.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
