In his early works Owen argues that, since individuals are wholly formed by their environment, education is the crucial factor in transforming them. Later he came to adopt far more radical positions, proposing nothing less than 'the emancipation of mankind' and the creation of a 'new moral world', a full-scale reorganization of British society, major reforms of working practices and the Poor Laws and the establishment of co-operative model.
"Una excelente obra para poder entender el pensamiento de Robert Owen sobre las situaciones que se han producido en el ámbito de trabajo en el siglo XIX en Gran Bretaña. La obra ofrece otra perspectiva sobre el marxismo en el ámbito laboral. "
