The first to introduce the term ‘‘Collective bargaining’’ :

  • A.Robert Merton
  • B.Sidney and Beatrice Webb
  • C.Amartya Sen
  • D.John Keynes

Answer: B

The term was introduced by Sidney and Beatrice Webb.

Beatrice Webb (then Beatrice Potter) used the phrase 'collective bargaining' in 1891 in her study of the co-operative movement in Great Britain, and she and Sidney Webb developed the idea in Industrial Democracy (1897). They described it as the process by which workers, through trade unions, negotiate terms of employment with employers as a group instead of individually.

Robert Merton was an American sociologist of functional analysis and anomie, Amartya Sen an economist of welfare and capabilities, and John Maynard Keynes an economist of employment and aggregate demand. None introduced this term.
