National Guilds and the State

"National Guilds and the State" (1920) explores the theory of National Guilds, a form of guild socialism advocating worker control of industry within a state framework. Written by S.G. Hobson and M.W. Robieson, the book examines the relationship between these guilds and the state, proposing a system where workers' organizations play a central role in economic governance.

This historical text provides insights into early 20th-century debates about socialism, industrial organization, and the role of the state. It remains relevant for understanding alternative economic models and the historical development of socialist thought.
