To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For Birmingham, when he carried his Bill in the English House of Commons eighty years later, could not have con- structed a more relevant preamble. Though valuable in its way, joint-stock partnership is not Co-operation.
INDUSTRIAL PARTNERSHIP 409 It was Mr. Owen, at Lanark, who first showed masters what they might, with honour and profit, do by voluntary partnership with those they employed. The law did not permit participation of profit with workmen in those days. It could only be done in the... form of gifts. Only patronage Co-operation was possible. Mr. Owen made these in the form of education, recreation, improved dwellings, and increased wages. All these were revocable — the law forbade contracts of participation with workmen. Industrial equity bore the name of benevolence, and dividends of profit reached workmen in the form of a discriminating charity.
Mr. Owen was a Paternalist. He believed in the general goodness of humanity, and that goodness could guide it ; but he had no conviction that it could guide itself.
