Robert Owen Books
May 14, 1771 – November 17, 1858
Robert Owen was a British reformer and philanthropist dedicated to enacting humanitarian improvements within industrial society. Known as 'a capitalist who became the first Socialist,' Owen's life was marked by a tireless pursuit of social justice and better working conditions, particularly for children. Through his writings, including 'Essays on the Principle of the Formation of Human Character,' Owen advocated for education and the liberation of the mind from 'useless and superstitious restraints.' His efforts to establish model communities, such as New Lanark in Scotland, and his experimental settlement at New Harmony in Indiana, though not always enduring, represented bold attempts to practically implement his utopian visions and left a lasting mark on the history of social thought.
