This text examines the concept of freedom in the context of American labour history. Nine essays develop themes in this history which show that liberty of contract and inalienable rights form two contradictory traditions concerning freedom.
A New Yorker now transplanted to Seattle, Daniel Jacoby earned his Ph.D. in economics at the University of Washington. He now works as an associate professor for the very unusual University of Washington—Bothell’s Liberal Studies Program, where interdisciplinarity and teaching are especially valued. His apprenticeship in academic scholarship has led him to publish monographs in several academic journals including Labor History, Industrial Relations, and the Journal of Economic History.
