Scope and content

A paper submitted to the 1938 Muintir na Tíre Rural Week by Harold Robbins, founder of the Catholic Land Movement in England. Robbins notes the parallels between his movement and Muintir na Tíre in preserving rural Catholic culture. Robbins seeks to discredit industrialism 'by concrete example' and suggests founding a 'fully-developed village, self-sufficient in food, in crafts, in social life and in contentment, buttressed by the succours of the Church, reproducing itself as its success [becomes] known'; such a village would be closed to economic contact with the outside world and administered by a guild. Includes extensive annotations and highlighting of passages.
