Este es el Volumen XIII de dieciocho de una serie sobre Sociología del Trabajo y la Organización. Publicado por primera vez en 1957, este es un estudio que analiza los cambios en el reclutamiento para trabajos calificados después de principios del siglo XIX, cuando el método habitual de ingreso al comercio y la industria en general era a través del aprendizaje. The International Library of Sociology (ILS) is the most important series of books on sociology ever published. Founded in the 1940s by Karl Mannheim, the series became the forum for pioneering research and theory, marked by comparative approaches and analysis of new disciplines, such as the sociology of youth and culture. Spanning volumes by Parsons, Dickinson and Ossowski, the history of the ILS is the history of modern sociology. Young people are educable. Young people are worth educating. Upon their wise handling depend the issues of ultimate harmonyor conflict in the home, in workshop or factory, and among thenations. Many current methods of treatment find, however, theirjustification only in the somewhat mythical descriptions of pastcenturies. For most of these there is little support in the morecareful studies of recent years This is Volume XIII of eighteen in a series on the Sociology of Work and Organisation. First published in 1957, this is a study looks at the changes in the recruitment into skilled work after the beginning of the nineteenth century when the usual method of entry to trade and industry in general was through apprenticeship. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork Spanning the work of Durkheim and Levy, this set explores the effect of economic and business activity on social institutions, and seeks empirically to investigate the social consequences of industry and commerce on communities.
