This article deals with the relation between the working situations of the commercial white-collar workers on the increase in number and the development of the consumer goods-market for the mass of people from the late 19th centuries to the First World War in Germany. The author aims at contributing to a social- and economic-historical explanation about an important aspect of the white-collar workers' problem, the problem of the "new middle-class" ("neuer Mittelstand") of that time, with which socialpoliticians (for example, Schmoller), socialists (for example, Kautsky) and socialscientists (for example, Lederer, Speier) dealt at that time. After the Second World War the white-collar workers' problem was investigated in detail particularly under the business historical viewpoint. But the white-collar workers in retail stores, who constituted a very important part of the "neuer Mittelstand" and exerted great influence upon its interest politics, have not been taken sufficiently into consideration. In this article the author discusses particularly in the first place a few economic-historical aspects of the commercial white-collar workers' problem and deals secondarily with working situations of these employees in order to sketch thirdly the development of the unions of commercial white-collar workers and their social policies.
