Great Wealth And Social Unrest: An Address (1907)

By Henry Clews

Book Overview

Great Wealth And Social Unrest: An Address (1907) is a book written by Henry Clews, a prominent American banker and financier. In this book, Clews discusses the growing social unrest that accompanied the rapid accumulation of wealth in the United States during the early 20th century. He argues that the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few powerful individuals and corporations is a threat to the stability of society, and that it is the responsibility of those with great wealth to use their resources to promote the common good. Clews also addresses the role of government in regulating the economy and ensuring fairness and equality for all citizens. This book provides valuable insights into the economic and social issues of its time and remains relevant today as debates about income inequality and the role of government continue to shape public discourse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
