SOCIALISM
Matthew" or the New York Church Association for
the Advancement of the Interests of Labour, it can
only be ascribed to that mental facility in holding at
the same time incompatible doctrines, which is every-
where the mark of the "Catholic but not Roman"
school. Christianity and Socialism are hopelessly in-
compatible, and the logic of events makes this ever
clearer. It is true that, before the publication of the
Encyclical "Rerum novarum", it was not unusual to
apply the term "Christian Socialism" to the social
reforms put forward throughout Europe by those
Catholics who are earnestly endeavouring to restore
the social philosophy of Catholicism to the position it
occupied in the ages of Faith. But, under the guid-
ance of Pope Leo XIII, that crusade against the social
and economic iniquities of the present age is now more
correctly styled "Christian Democracy", and no really
instructed, loyal, and clear-thinking Catholic would
now claim or accept the style of Christian Socialist.
To sum up, in the words of a capable anonymous writer in "The Quarterly Review", Socialism has for "its philosophical basis, pure materialism; its re- ligious basis is pure negation; its ethical basis the theory that society makes the individuals of which it is composed, not the individuals society, and that therefore the structure of society determines indi- vidual conduct, which involves moral irresponsibility; its economic basis is the theory that labour is the sole producer, and that capital is the surplus value over bare subsistence produced by labour and stolen by capitalists; its juristic basis is the right of labour to the whole product; its historical basis is the industrial revolution, that is the change from small and handi- craft methods of production to large and mechanical ones, and the warfare of classes; its political basis is democracy. ... It may be noted that some of these [bases] have already been abandoned and are in ruins, others are beginning to shake; and as this process advances the defenders are compelled to retreat and take up fresh positions. Thus the form of the doc- trine changes and undergoes modification, though all cling still to the central principle, which is the substitution of public for private ownership."
