ABSTRACT

The real socialism was collapsed. Also the socialism is accounted of fruitless. But from the capitalism after the industry revolution to the new liberalism a socialism or the social thoughts is a alternative or a guide of the future for the poor and the suffered. The idea and history af the christian socialism offer a christian who has a concern about such economic and social problems as to full suggestions. The Idea of the christian socialism begins from the neighbor love in the New Testament. The christian socialists enlarged their works to the field of the whole life with a politic, economic and social systems. Especially they concentrated upon the social inequality and the life of labour. Historically in a christian sect movement we take cognizance of the thoughts and works of the christian socialism. But it is useful that he takes an approach the prehistory of the christian socialist from the christian social movements after the industry revolution which brings directly about the capitalism. Above all the German christian socialism is important in the church history and christian idea history. The participated people in the movements were classified in three groups. The first group came from the liberal, the second sympathized with the proletariat before 1917 revolution and the last group explained the war and the terrible of the war. The christian socialist toke active parts in four fields, namely church work(Gemeindearbeit), church politic(Kirchenpolitik), general politic(Grosse Politik), and conferences(Kongressen). At that time the church regarded the christian socialist as non-christian. But also the social movement attacked the christian socialist from the view of materialism. So they didn’t gain anyone’s affections. They were attacked by the church and also any Parties and rights and lefts too, so that they need a struggle in order to take out their bat. But they ended because of interference of the national socialism in 1933.
