The late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century US economy maimed and killed employees at an astronomically high rate, while the legal system left the injured and their loved ones with little recourse. In the 1910s, US states enacted workers' compensation laws, which required employers to pay a portion of the financial costs of workplace injuries. Nate Holdren uses a range of archival materials, interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives, and compelling narration to criticize the shortcomings of these laws. While compensation laws were a limited improvement for employees in economic terms, Holdren argues that these laws created new forms of inequality, causing people with disabilities to lose their jobs, while also resulting in new forms of inhumanity. Ultimately, this study raises questions about law and class and about when and whether our economy and our legal system produce justice or injustice.

Entsendungen und dauerhafte Auslandsbeschäftigung sind inzwischen ein weltweites Phänomen. Grenzüberschreitende Freizügigkeit bedarf aber der Begleitung durch grenzüberschreitende soziale Sicherung. Dies gilt auch für das Risiko von Arbeitsunfall und Berufskrankheit. Eine fehlende Koordinierung der nationalen Sozialrechtsordnungen und des Internationalen Privatrechts birgt hier die Gefahr von Schutzlücken für den Arbeitnehmer und von ungeklärten deliktischen Haftungsrisiken seines Arbeitgebers. Am Beispiel der internationalen Ausrichtung der deutschen gesetzlichen Unfallversicherung und der australischen Workers Compensation untersucht die Autorin diese Risiken umfassend. Mit einem detaillierten Raster praxisnaher Fallbeispiele ermittelt sie Defizite bei Versicherungsschutz, Leistungsrecht und Arbeitgeberhaftung und zeigt konkrete Lösungsmöglichkeiten auf. Bestehende völkerrechtliche Abkommen und das koordinierende Sozialrecht der EG sind als Musterregelungen in die Untersuchung einbezogen.
