Occupation：Co-operator; social reformer, factory owner

Robert Owen was a Welsh social reformer and one of the founders of utopian socialism and the cooperative movement.

Owens philosophy was based on three intellectual pillars:

First, no one was responsible for his will and his own actions because his whole character is formed independently of himself; people are products of their heredity and environment, hence his support for education and labour reform, rendering him a pioneer in human capital investment.

Second, all religions are based on the same ridiculous imagination, that make man a weak, imbecile animal; a furious bigot and fanatic; or a miserable hypocrite; .

Third, support for the putting-out system instead of the factory system.
