Christian Socialism And Its Opponents: A Lecture (1851)

By John Malcolm Forbes Ludlow

Book Overview

""Christian Socialism and Its Opponents: A Lecture"" is a historical work written by John Malcolm Ludlow in 1851. The book explores the emergence of Christian socialism as a political and economic ideology in the 19th century and its opposition by conservative thinkers. Ludlow argues that Christian socialism is a legitimate extension of Christian teachings and values, and that it offers a more just and equitable society than the prevailing capitalist system. He also examines the arguments of those who oppose Christian socialism, including fears of socialism leading to anarchy and the belief that capitalism is the only viable economic system. The book provides an insightful analysis of the social and political climate of the mid-19th century and the debates surrounding the role of Christianity in shaping economic and political systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
