About Rerum Novarum

Rerum novarum is an encyclical issued by Pope Leo XIII on 15 May 1891. It is an open letter passed to all Catholic bishops addressing the condition of the working class. It discusses the relationships and mutual duties between labor and capital, as well as between government and its citizens. Of primary concern is the need to alleviate the poverty of the working class. The encyclical attempts to strike a just balance among the rights of workers, owners, and the state, supporting the rights of labor to form trade unions and earn a living wage, balanced with the right to private property, while rejecting the extremes of state socialism and laissez-faire capitalism.
