Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the first in a series of four, in which the author sets out to explore the Church's role in improving the lives of the working class. He begins by positing that labor is not a punishment or curse, but a sacred task. It is ordained by God for our spiritual benefit, and as such, all labor is honorable. The dignity of labor must be recognized and affirmed, particularly in those professions that are not deemed high-minded. The author explores the ways in which labor and capital could and should work together for the benefit of society. He emphasizes that it is not the existence of capital which is the problem but the abuse of capital. The author concludes by talking about the importance of savings and thrift but places more importance on a social and individual plan of cooperation among workingmen for mutual aid in sickness and misfortune. The insights provided by the author in this book could be a catalyst for improving the lives of working-class people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
