What America Stands For: The Religious Aspect
In contemporary America institutional religion — the great religious bodies, Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish — grows with a vigor equalled only in the early decades of the nineteenth century. In the last two decades church membership has increased at a ratio twice that of the rapidly accelerating population. Nearly every American affirms that he is a Protestant, Catholic, or Jew while three out of every five are actually members of one of the mo…
The Catholic Factor in Urban Welfare: The Early Period, 1850–1880
For more than a century* private philanthropy has loomed large on the social horizon of American cities. Their governments, as inept and clumsy as they were politically corrupt, were not readily entrusted with delicate social service functions. Happily for urban welfare, Americans not only extolled the great virtue of charity but conspicuously practiced it. As no other people, they have made relief of human misery a part of their life purpose, de…
Origins of Catholic Social Reform in the United States: Ideological Aspects
Represented by a small, pioneering religious group in the Anglo-American colonies, the Catholic faith was not transplanted in conspicuous degree to the United States until the nineteenth century. Mainly through immigration the Catholic population in the United States rose from a mere 50,000 in 1800 to more than twelve millions a century later. Though many believed that countless Catholics were lost in the transition process—the question has been …

Labor Legislation in the United States: The Background and Growth of the Newer Trends
The current trend toward conservatism in American politics is most pronounced in the field of labor relations. This should occasion no surprise in view of the well-known fact that legislation in behalf of labor was die essential and constant element in New Deal liberalism. In keeping with the “American way” of swinging the political pendulum periodically from liberalism to conservatism and back again, the present Congress enacted the Taft-Hartley…

Monsignor John A. Ryan: An Historical Appreciation
When Monsignor John A. Ryan died in late summer, millions of people in America and elsewhere mourned the passing of the most creative moral theologian in the present age. Here was a man who nearly a half century ago set himself a highly beneficent and constructive task; here was a man who by continuous, grinding effort reached the journey's end with the great task largely completed. Such success comes to few men, whatever their fields of interest…
The Reception of Leo XIII's Labor Encyclical in America, 1891-1919
The Reception of Leo XIII's Labor Encyclical in America, 1891–1919
In America, as elsewhere, Catholic effort to reform the modern economic order antedates by some years Rerum Novarum, Leo XIII's masterly encyclical on the condition of labor, issued in May, 1891. For a full generation Catholics in France and Germany had been organizing to ameliorate social conditions, and in all industrialized lands the more progressive members of the Church insisted that a sincere attempt to apply Christianity to the social orde…
