John Minter Morgan
Originally published in 1843, ’The Christian Commonwealth’ remains a landmark work in the history of political and social theory. Drawing heavily on Christian teachings and the concept of the common good, Morgan lays out a vision for a more just and equitable society, one in which the accumulation of private property is seen as an obstacle to the realization of true social harmony. Part philosophical treatise, part political manifesto, Morgan’s work is as relevant today as it was nearly two centuries ago.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the 'public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
