ABSTRACT

In this chapter, the authors examine the vast sphere of the history of labour. They consider exclusively the morphological structure of labour organization, and the second time the development of the division of labour or differentiation. The phaseology of integration will assume a different aspect as classified by any one of these standards, but the graded system just drawn up will suffer no essential alteration through these new aspects, and it will scarcely be enriched by the use of them. For the phaseology of Integration there is, no more sharply defined principle of division and no more efficacious and natural standard than the way and manner in which the exchange of goods is accomplished, in the broadest sense of the word. Integration in a sociological sense, as apart from the mathematical or biological, and in the shape of trade and commerce, of transport and mercantile association, arrange and effects the exchange of goods among differentiated persons.
