ABSTRACT:
This is about the social theology of English Catholic laboring people in the mid-seventeenth century. It focuses on two aspects of their theological history: their antinomianism, meaning literally "against the law," and their labor theory of value. The seventeenth-century antinomians in large measure rejected both the spiritual and material basis of the established order. Antinomian Levellers and their Catholic tended to view religious, economic and political value in terms of labor. In their pamphlets and activities, one finds the idea that it was God’s plan that since labor produced wealth, labor, not landlords and capitalist, should enjoy it.
