  • Featherbedding on the Railroads: by Law and by Agreement·
    Featherbedding on the Railroads: by Law and by Agreement· J.A. LlPOWSKI* I. INTRODUCTION The concept of "featherbedding"1 or make-work rules involves the conflict between two ideals: efficiency, usually necessary for the profit­ able operation of an enterprise, and job security, which is the desire of every worker and the hope of any union interested in maintaining its membership rolls. These conflicting ideals must be reconciled at some point. In the railroad industry, where the controversy over featherbedding has been most pronounced and the consequences most strongly felt, the carriers argue that the increased labor cost resulting from this practice is crippling the industry. In 1963 it was estimated that featherbedding . • BA, Lindenwood College; J.D., University of Tulsa College of Law, 1976. 1. Featherbedding has been defined as "[T]hose work rules which require the employ­ ment of more workers than needed for the job. In addition, when technological advances eliminate positions, unions often insist that the workers be retained and receive their regular pay tor doing nothing" A PARADIS, THE LABOR REFERENCE BOOK 71 (1972). The United States Departm'ent of Labor says that featherbedding is: a derogatory term applied to a practice, working rule, or agreement provision which limits output or requires employment of excess workers and thereby creates or preserves soft or unnecessary jobs; or to a charge or fee levied by a union upon a company for services which are not performed or not to be performed.

  • Lenin a Revolutionary Life
    lenin ‘An excellent biography, which captures the real Lenin – part intel- lectual professor, part ruthless and dogmatic politician.’ Geoffrey Swain, University of the West of England ‘A fascinating book about a gigantic historical figure. Christopher Read is an accomplished scholar and superb writer who has pro- duced a first-rate study that is courageous, original in its insights, and deeply humane.’ Daniel Orlovsky, Southern Methodist University Vladimir Il’ich Ulyanov, known as Lenin was an enigmatic leader, a resolute and audacious politician who had an immense impact on twentieth-century world history. Lenin’s life and career have been at the centre of much ideological debate for many decades. The post-Soviet era has seen a revived interest and re-evaluation of the Russian Revolution and Lenin’s legacy. This new biography gives a fresh and original account of Lenin’s personal life and political career. Christopher Read draws on a broad range of primary and secondary sources, including material made available in the glasnost and post-Soviet eras. Focal points of this study are Lenin’s revolutionary ascetic personality; how he exploited culture, education and propaganda; his relationship to Marxism; his changing class analysis of Russia; and his ‘populist’ instincts. This biography is an excellent and reliable introduction to one of the key figures of the Russian Revolution and post-Tsarist Russia. Christopher Read is Professor of Modern European History at the University of Warwick. He is author of From Tsar to Soviets: The Russian People and Their Revolution, 1917–21 (1996), Culture and Power in Revolutionary Russia (1990) and The Making and Breaking of the Soviet System (2001).

La puesta en práctica de acciones armadas por parte de este grupo generó un proceso de discusión y debate que, recientemente, se trajo a colación a raíz de una serie de nuevos insumos documentales. Es objetivo de este artículo analizar este hecho a la luz de estas flamantes herramientas de discusión. Palabras Claves Lucha armada - Trotskismo - Movimiento campesino - Guevarismo Abstract At the beginning of the sixties, the Trotskyist Argentine organization Palabra Obrera (Working Word) decided to send three militants to Peru with the aim of construction and of political insertion in a context of important social convulsion, principally from the capture of land and the rural unionization in the region of the Cuzco. The implementation of armed actions by this group generated a process of discussion and debate that, recently, was brought to collation immediately after a series of new documentary inputs.
