Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J. F. C. Harrison has written that ‘for each age there is a new view of Mr Owen’, which is proof of the fertility and continuing relevance of his ideas. Not just in Britain and America but today around the world anti-poverty campaigners, birth-controllers, collectivists, communitarians, co-operators, ecologists, educationalists, environmentalists, feminists, humanitarians, internationalists, paternalistic capitalists, secularists, campaigners for social justice, trade unionists, urban planners, utopians, welfare reformers can all find something to admire and inspire in the treasure trove that is the thought and actions of Robert Owen. Owen was a creative genius of global significance, a radical writer and activist of international reputation and reach who has inspired those seeking to change human society for the better. The contributors to this volume include not only many of the recognized experts on the life, work and legacy of Owen, but also work from younger scholars or scholars coming to the field afresh. The volume presents the most recent and original research on Owen. Owen notoriously (and impressively) dabbled in many spheres, and this is reflected in the its breadth of content. The unifying themes are Owen’s profile in his own time, and the relevance of his ideas for the generations that followed. His importance for educational and social philosophy, for political economy and for the political theory of socialism are all discussed, as are his contribution as a philanthropic employer, his political activities and the specificities of his historical context.

Book excerpt: This text offers a major reassessment of the life and thought of the distinguished 19th century industrial philanthropist and educational reformer, Robert Owen. In a period when Owen's radical new visions for learning and teaching, adult and vocational pedagogy and social transformation are receiving fresh and global attention, Robert Davis and Frank O'Hagan place Owen's thought right at the heart of the Enlightenment advocacy of popular, democratic mass education. Tracing both the ancestry and the legacy of Owen's reforming spirit, they also offer a critical appraisal of the relevance of his ideas for the development of education at all levels and stages in the challenging contexts of international 21st century education.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Owen, Vol. 2: A Biography In 1818 there was founded at Frederik's Oord in Holland the first of a series of Labour Colonies for providing work for the unemployed. Owen himself repeatedly, in the course of his later life, claimed that the foundation of these Dutch colonies was directly due to his teaching; and his claim has been endorsed by Holyoake and others. I cannot find any Justification for the claim. In most of the contemporary references which Ihave come across to these colonies, no mention is made of Owen (see especially Quarterly Review, November, Moreover, though the Dutch scheme had a general resemblance to Owen's, and in one Of the colonies at least the residents were housed in a quadrangle, the aim and methods diverged widely: the Dutch scheme was individualistic. (see Porter, Progress of tlze Nation p. 116; also An Account of tile Poor Colonies of Holland. Edinburgh, The writer, however, Of the article Owen in Palgrave's Dictionary of Political Economy favours Owen's claim to have had a share in initiating these Dutch Labour Colonies, and refers to an article in Leigh Hunt's Examiner of April 2 5, 1819, which endorses the claim.
