Social Problems of To-day, or the Mormon Question in Its Economic Aspects
This nonfiction study examines how 19th-century Mormon communities used cooperation in business and arbitration in disputes to shape their economy.
Written from a wage‑worker’s perspective, it analyzes broader questions about liberty, state power, and labor in America.
Across chapters that explore co‑operation, arbitration, morality, education, and plural marriage, the work frames a larger discussion about economic reform and the place of faith communities in a changing nation. It invites readers to consider how economic strategy and legal arrangements affect everyday rights and community life.
Ideal for readers of labor history, religious history, and studies of economic reform in America.
