Outline of Sanity by G K Chesterton
As an advocate of Distributism, an early 20th-century school of social thought developed by the author and his colleagues, Chesterton addresses the topics of concentration of wealth, poverty, work, agriculture, machinery, and capital in this famous work. He favored distribution of wealth while being antisocialist; he advocated ownership of private property while being anticapitalist. He argues that the economic order is bound by moral law and that man should be served by the economy rather than serving it.
“A clear and compelling explanation of Distributism, that misunderstood, misrepresented idea” —Dale Ahlquist, president, American Chesterton Society “The time is ripe for American Catholics to be introduced to G. K. Chesterton.” —Barbara E. Rose, cruxnews.com
G. K. Chesterton's writing career spanned 35 years and included nearly 100 books and thousands of articles in 125 different periodicals, on topics ranging from travel, economics, and politics to religion and philosophy.
