Overview

""History of the International Labour Office"" provides a comprehensive account of the origins, evolution, and early achievements of the International Labour Office (ILO). Written by George N. Barnes, a key figure in the organization's founding during the Paris Peace Conference, this work examines the global movement toward standardized labor conditions and social justice in the aftermath of World War I. The narrative traces the development of international labor legislation and the structural mechanisms designed to facilitate cooperation between governments, employers, and workers. By detailing the challenges faced by the ILO during its formative years under the League of Nations, Barnes illustrates the transformative shift in how nations addressed industrial relations and human rights. This account serves as a significant historical record of the institutional effort to secure humane conditions of labor and promote lasting peace through economic and social reform. It remains an essential resource for scholars of political science, labor history, and international diplomacy.
