This early work by Richard T. Ely was originally published in 1886
and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory
biography. 'The Labor Movement in America' is an academic work on
early American communism, co-operation in America, the economic
value of labor organisations, and much more. Richard Theodore Ely
was born on 13th April 1854, in Ripley, New York, United States.
Ely began his academic career as a professor and head of the
Department of Political Economy at Johns Hopkins University,
Baltimore, where he worked from 1881 to 1892. During this period,
Ely co-founded the American Economic Association and served as the
group's secretary. He stood as President of the organisation
between 1899 and 1901. The Association still titles its annual
keynote address the 'Richard T. Ely Lecture' in recognition of his
services to the field. Ely published many works on politics and
economics, including The Labor Movement in America (1886),
Elementary Principles of Economics (1904), Property and Contract in
their Relations to the Distribution of Wealth (1914), Russian Land
Reform (1916), and many more.
