/kloc-at the beginning of the 0/9th century, a famous representative of utopian socialism appeared. They are Saint-Simon (the founder of utopian socialism), Fourier (the leader of utopian socialism) and Irving of Britain. ?

They profoundly exposed the evils of capitalism and put forward many wonderful genius ideas for the ideal society in the future. They tried to establish a new society of "everyone is equal and everyone is happy". These thoughts have played an important role in inspiring and improving the consciousness of workers. But utopian socialism is only an immature theory, which reflects the initial and unclear wishes of the growing proletariat.

They can't reveal the fundamental contradiction and development law of capitalism, they don't know the class struggle and historical mission of the proletariat, so their socialism can only be an unattainable fantasy.

Owen s contribution as a utopian socialist;

1799, Owen bought a large enterprise in partnership with his later father-in-law. On this basis, he set up a factory in new lanark, with Owen as the manager. At this time, Britain was in the heyday of the industrial revolution. On the one hand, the rapid development of productive forces and the extreme expansion of bourgeois wealth, on the other hand, the working people are exploited, and the contradiction between workers and capitalists is intensified.

Owen is determined to carry out experiments to reform social irrationality in his own factory. His reform principles are beneficial to both factory owners and workers. He shortened the working hours of workers to 10 hour, prohibited child labor under the age of nine, raised workers' wages, and temporarily suspended wages in the factory.

Improve workers' living and working conditions, open factory shops, sell consumer goods cheaper than ordinary markets, open primary schools, kindergartens and nurseries for children in factories, and set up workers' mutual savings associations. Owen's reform measures have achieved remarkable results. The factory has increased profits and the workers' lives have improved.
