The Catholic Church and Labour

By William Francis Barry, Francis A. Gasquet, Henry Edward Manning, et al.

Book Overview

"The Catholic Church and Labour" (1908) explores the complex relationship between the Catholic Church and the burgeoning labor movement, primarily in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Featuring contributions from prominent Catholic figures such as Cardinal Manning, Abbot Gasquet, and others, the book delves into the Church's perspective on social justice, the rights of workers, and the moral implications of industrial capitalism.

This collection of essays and addresses offers valuable insights into the historical context of Catholic social teaching and its engagement with the pressing economic and social issues of the time. It serves as a crucial resource for understanding the Church's role in shaping labor relations and advocating for the welfare of working-class populations.
