To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The strategy is to make it appear that it is the other side that is pre- venting a settlement, or that is the easier to bludgeon into quietude. So far the employers have generally been able to utilize this desire for peace at all costs in their own interests, but it is equally possible for labor, as it increases in strength, to compel an outraged pubUc to force the acceptance of its demands. The difficulty of coercing a functional group will make it easier and easier to compel the employers to ...give way for the public weal. For the pubUc is ever crying, "Peace! Peace! Peace at any price!" This, then, has been the most important social consequence of the industrial revolution: this stratification of society into great classes whose interests are far from identical and whose frequent clashes fre- quently upset the delicate workings of that other great organization, the industrial machine. Without a knowledge of these classes and their attitudes it is impossible to xmderstand the modern labor movement or its aims.
