    Summary: We study the ramifications of Schur's theorem that, if \(G\) is a group such that \(G/ZG\) is finite, then \(G'\) is finite, if we restrict attention to nilpotent group. Here \(ZG\) is the center of \(G\), and \(G'\) is the commutator subgroup. We use localization methods and obtain relativized versions of the main theorems.
