San Alberto Hurtado and Trade Union Freedom in Republican Chile

The profound changes that Chilean society experienced in the early years of the 20th century and that triggered the so-called “social question” had a special impact on the reality of workers and unions. Saint Alberto Hurtado, then only a Jesuit priest, played a relevant role in the complex situations that strained the world of work in those years and defined a pastoral position in the arena of union struggles. The way in which Father Hurtado resolved the challenges of the era in which he lived constitutes to this day a fundamental tool for a more enriching, productive and dignified work relationship.
