The Industrial Revolution, By The Catholic Church
The industrial revolution which took place from the 18th to 19th century began in the United Kingdom, and then spread throughout Europe, North America and eventually the world. It was a historical period that marked a major turning point in human social society, almost every aspect of daily life including agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transport and technology was eventually in some way influenced. The Industrial Revolution brought great riches to those who put it in motion (the entrepreneurs). However, the revolution also brought high poverty rates and harsh living conditions for others such as those who were not entrepreneurs. In response, the Catholic Church then rose concerns of the “ugliness of capitalism” which is the social systems in which motives are to produce goods and services and to sell them for profit while not satisfying people’s needs. As a result the Catholic Church wrote Rerum Novarum in response to these issues. It was then published by the Catholic Church to address conditions of the workers and the wrongs of communism.
