The defeat of the revolutionary and council perspective of the workers movement will allow the expansion of Labor Law, which will be understood as an effective form of social integration of workers in capitalist societies strongly stressed at the beginning of the twentieth century. The so-called Weimar Laboratory will be essential in this expansion, since a group of authors will test the legal and political formulas that will be the bases of the development of Labor Law, and that, as we will argue in these articles, express a philosophical perspective on the existential relevance of work and on political action for its emancipation, with undeniable influences from Hegel, Marx and Bernstein.
