Automation: Problem and Solution

Automation: Problem and Solution deals with the introduction of new technology, and how labour saving devices can be a boon and not a curse. The first part of this booklet explains the problems. Oswald Mosley's relationship with Lord Keynes and the differences between their ideas are explained. The Birmingham Proposals of the pre-war period are also discussed. These were put forward by Oswald Mosley and the Young Socialists in an attempt to balance consumerism with production. The methods being attempted in the USA with "the new Deal" are also examined. The final chapter deals with solutions to the problems and an exposition of Mosley's "Wage Price Mechanism."
