Brownson's Defence: Defence of the Article on the Laboring Classes From the Boston Quarterly Review (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781020937026)

In this eloquent and impassioned defense of the laboring class, Brownson challenges the prevailing view of his time that laborers are inferior and undeserving of full citizenship rights. Drawing on Catholic social teachings and contemporary social and economic analyses, he makes a compelling case for the dignity and rights of all workers, and for an economic system that serves the common good. This book remains relevant to anyone concerned with social justice and the dignity of work.
