Robert Owen Boeken
14 mei 1771 – 17 november 1858
Robert Owen was een Britse hervormer en filantroop, toegewijd aan het doorvoeren van humanitaire verbeteringen binnen de industriële samenleving. Bekend als 'een kapitalist die de eerste socialist werd', werd Owen's leven gekenmerkt door een onvermoeibaar streven naar sociale rechtvaardigheid en betere arbeidsomstandigheden, met name voor kinderen. Door zijn geschriften, waaronder 'Essays on the Principle of the Formation of Human Character', pleitte Owen voor onderwijs en de bevrijding van de geest van 'nutteloze en bijgelovige beperkingen'. Zijn inspanningen om modelgemeenschappen te stichten, zoals New Lanark in Schotland, en zijn experimentele nederzetting in New Harmony in Indiana, vertegenwoordigden, hoewel niet altijd duurzaam, moedige pogingen om zijn utopische visies in de praktijk te brengen en lieten een blijvende indruk achter in de geschiedenis van sociaal denken.
