Title
Thoughts and Suggestions on The Social Problem and Things in General (1888-1889)
Abstract
Introduced by Pierre Berton, the article presents socialist journalist Phillips Thompson's eclectic musings on labour and land reform, banking, the money system, and capitalism. Written in 1888-89, Thompson's journal reflects his visit to the UK during this period, where met with Peter Kropotkin and heard a speech by William Morris. Henry George appears in the entries, and there are quotations from a variety of sources including William Lloyd Garrison and Harriet Martineau. The journal manuscript is kept at Library Archives Canada with the Thomas Phillips Thompson papers.
