By Charles Robert Ashbee

Book Overview

""A Few Chapters In Workshop Reconstruction And Citizenship"" is a book written by Charles Robert Ashbee and published in 1894. The book focuses on the importance of improving the working conditions and environment of the workshops in England during the late 19th century. Ashbee argues that the quality of life and work for the working class can be improved by creating a sense of community and citizenship within the workshops. He also emphasizes the need for better training and education for workers, as well as the importance of art and design in improving the aesthetic and functional aspects of the workshops. The book is a call to action for government officials, employers, and workers to work together to create a better and more equitable society. Ashbee's ideas and arguments are still relevant today and provide insight into the history of labor and social reform movements in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
