Focusing on the critique of modern capitalism, this influential work of social criticism argues that selfish individualism fosters a culture of acquisitiveness that corrupts society. Rooted in Christian moral values, the text highlights the negative consequences of capitalism and anticipates the emergence of the Welfare state. Its profound impact resonates in both Britain and beyond, making it a significant contribution to discussions on social ethics and economic justice.
