O knihe
Christian Socialism arose in England in the mid-nineteenth century as a response to the philosophy of ¿political economy¿. Seeking a reform of the moral underpinnings of society, not simply institutional change or nationalisation, it refuted the assumption that people are essentially selfish, competitive individuals seeking nothing but personal happiness. Although they did not deny the presence of selfishness, its proponents believed that the social nature of humankind lies deeper than such egotism and conflict, and pursued a society built on this belief. Less prominent now than at the time of its inception, Christian Socialism nevertheless continues into the twenty-first century, its goal nothing less than a new society built upon the virtues of equality, fellowship, cooperation, service and justice. Philip Turner¿s careful exposition traces the history of this strand of Anglican political thought and restores confidence in its message for the future.
