The lawsuit of Chaplin, who was just twenty years old and who only later became famous as a film actor, is one of several thousand "encounters in court" that form the starting point and basis for this book. From reports and memos about disputes over wages, layoffs, accidents at work and breaches of contract, a novel and exciting story of English labour law in the industrial age is created. For the first time, Willibald Steinmetz examines the practice of the lower courts in labour disputes and lets not only lawyers, but also laypeople, complainants and employers, have their say. Class judges, high costs, obscure procedures, embarrassing cross-examination were just some of the reasons that gave English workers little chance of success in court.Labor laws and legislationGreat BritainHistoryLabor laws and legislationHistory.340.09PF 947rvkSteinmetz Willibald989157German Historical Institute LondonDE-B1597DE-B1597UkMaJRUBOOK9910688347503321Begegnungen vor Gericht2262201UNINA
