Synopsis

Explore the push for fair, modern social laws in a 1913 lecture series. This volume surveys how law and morality intersect in issues like marriage, divorce, child labor, and industrial safety, and why societies aim to align statutes with living standards and religious principles.

The text argues for a unified approach to marriage, a standardized divorce framework, and practical reforms to protect workers and families. It ties these ideas to broader debates about state power, civil rights, and the role of Christianity in shaping just policy.


  • How marriage should be defined, licensed, and recognized across states

  • Arguments for uniform divorce rules and the timing of decrees

  • Child labor laws and safeguarding young workers

  • Wife desertion, industrial safety, and compensation for workplace injuries



Ideal for readers of early 20th‑century social policy, constitutional law, and discussions on the balance between local autonomy and national standards.
