Overview

""International Social Progress: The Work of the International Labour Organisation of the League of Nations"" provides an insightful and contemporary examination of the establishment and early achievements of the International Labour Organisation (ILO). This work explores the global effort to standardize labor conditions and promote social justice as a foundation for lasting international peace. The text details the constitutional framework of the ILO, its legislative processes, and the significant impact of its conventions on industrial life across different nations. George Alexander Johnston offers a comprehensive analysis of how international cooperation can address complex social issues such as working hours, child labor, and women's employment rights. By documenting the intersection of economic policy and humanitarian concern, the book highlights the shift toward a collective responsibility for human welfare on a global scale. This volume serves as an essential historical record for those interested in the evolution of international law, the history of the labor movement, and the development of modern global governance. It remains a valuable resource for understanding the origins of the institutional mechanisms that continue to shape social policy worldwide today.
