Wikipedia, viewed Oct. 28, 2019: Giuseppe Toniolo (7 March 1845-7 October 1918) was an Italian Roman Catholic economist and sociologist Toniolo served as a professor for most of his life and was a leading political and social economist who railed against Capitalism and Communism. He favored religious values in both economics and politics to create a harmonious situation in which both sectors work for all rather than a select few. Toniolo also supported the work of unions and opposed worker exploitation deeming unions a step forward in preventing this. Toniolo's cause for beatification opened in 1934 though the formal decree for introduction did not come until 1951. He later became titled as Venerable in 1975 and was beatified later on 29 April 2012 in Rome.
