The narrative explores the conflict between Major Barbara, a Salvation Army officer dedicated to aiding the poor, and her estranged father, Andrew Undershaft, a wealthy munitions manufacturer. Their reunion sparks a moral debate over the nature of charity versus employment, as Undershaft argues that providing jobs is a more effective means of alleviating poverty than Barbara's charitable efforts. This clash of values highlights the complexities of social responsibility and the ethical implications of wealth in society.
