Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outline of Practical Sociology: With Special Reference to American Conditions It is not intended that the Outline of Practical So ciology should be exhaustive; there are many great questions, such as taxation, the finances, etc., which have not been included, because they will come more appropriately in other volumes of the American Citi zen Series. The references given at the head of each Chapter could have been greatly increased in number, but it was deemed advisable to give simply those that are most accessible. It is a pleasure to acknowledge the services of Messrs. Charles W. Morris, Jr., walter F. Carruthers, and charles H. Verrill in the verification of data and citations and in proof-reading; and I am under great obligations to the editors and publishers of the periodicals enumerated and to the Honorable Secretary of the Interior, and am especially grateful for the kind and valuable suggestions of Dr. Hart, the editor of the Series.

Book The Study of History and Sociology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Study of History and Sociology Classic Reprint written by Frank W. Blackmar and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of History and Sociology In some institutions these changes have been sudden, in others slow and laborious, owing to lack of resources and other obstacles even more formidable. In this respect it may be said that a young, growing institution like our own, with comparatively few resources, yet working in a new field with a special purpose, has an advantage in outlining a policy, over Older and wealthier institutions; it has the advantage of the experience of other institutions without the obstructions which essentially arise on account of traditional usage. It may more readily adjust its methods and its course of study to the needs of society. Nor must it be inferred that this adjust ment is a transient affair, pandering to the clamors of popular Opinion, for a university must on the one hand be a leader in thought and opinion; on the other, it must supply the de mands of higher education, both in kind and in quantity. And especially should a State university strengthen those branches of instruction that directly aid in the general bene fits of society at large - the welfare of the body politic. In so doing it performs one of its essential functions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Others, who understand the working principles of what is called Slavery, do not think so. They think that it is both morally and civilly good. This is their opinion of its great and well known essentials. These they think, ought to be unchanged and perpetual.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Sociology in the Service of Social Ethics Can a whole community form a correct judgment of these standards and methods? There is abroad in our country an ill-disguised contempt for democracy which has its basis partly in the facts of failure, and partly also in a misconception of what a democracy should be expected to judge and decide. If an entire community cannot, in any sense, form a judgment of the wisdom and morality of complex systems, then is our national pretension a huge falsehood.

Download or read book Twentieth Century Sociology Classic Reprint written by Georges Gurvitch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twentieth Century Sociology Nineteenth Century Sociology was characterized by a limited number of problems more or less dogmatically ac cepted and differently resolved in conflicting schools. The initial tendency to link if not to identify sociology with philosophy of history or theory of evolution (as exemplified by Auguste Comte, Herbert Spencer, and even Karl Marx) was overcome only slowly and step by step. The field was marked by eternal discussions between the partisans of order or the admirers of progress; between the defenders of the individual or of Society, contrasted with each other as isolated entities; between the promoters of psychology as against sociology, and vice versa; and among the proponents of a predominating factor in so cial life, such as the geographical, biological, anthropo racial, demographic, technological, and so on (not one of which as a matter of.fact when taken separately belongs to the social reality). These conflicts threatened to com promise the scientific character of early sociological re search. The practice of seeking and formulating socio logical laws on which different sociologists could never agree completed the rather dismal picture of sociology in the first century of its birth.

As we advance through the principles Of sociology he applies them to his own special group and writes a sociological analysis Of it by instalments.

Book Introduction to Sociology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Introduction to Sociology Classic Reprint written by Emory Stephen Bogardus and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to Sociology There is' need for a course Of study which will introduce the student to the field of the social sciences. It should give him a broad, comprehensive outlook at the beginning of his college work and prepare him for and arouse his interest in further work in the individual social sciences. This study should make it possible for him to choose his life-activity with reference to all the activities Of society and assist him more or less perma uently in keeping his life-work properly oriented and fitted into its proper place in the life-work Of society. Such a course may well be given, not from the uncorrelated points of view of the respective social sciences, but from a societary point of view. It should clearly indicate that a good member of society should be produced before producing the lawyer, the engineer, the physician, or any other professional or occupational type.1 It should emphasize the fact that the qualities which make good members of communities are more important than the accomplishments of life.1 It should be based upon the proposition that the relations of men to one another are more important than the relations of men to nature.1 It should never overlook the fact that the ideal of the United States today, of individual power and success, instead of being a socializing agency, may become the Chief instrument for dis solving the social order itself.1 The course of study in ques tion should show the solidarity of society and the interdepend ence of all its parts. It is here attempted to present, for example, the political or economic factors in social progress not only from a sociological point of view, but in such a way that the student will want to continue along political science or economic lines as the case may be. The student is not urged to follow up this course with purely sociological studies, but the attempt is made to direct his social interest so that it will find wholesome expres sion through law, politics, business, and so forth. In this out line, history may not appear to have received full consideration as an important member of the group of social sciences, but the course is based on historical data, the historical method is used more or less continuously and such constant emphasis is laid on historical explanations and backgrounds that by the time the course is completed, history is likely to have received more than its proportionate attention.

Book Sociology and Social Progress

Download or read book Sociology and Social Progress written by Thomas Nixon Carver and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sociology and Social Progress: A Handbook for Students of Sociology It is only partially true that sociology is a new science; It is true that the name has only recently been applied to a definite body of knowledge, and it is still more recently that there has been a group of scholars devoting themselves exclusively to this subject and going by the name of sociologists. But it is not true that human society, the subject of sociological study, has only recently attracted the attention of students. On the contrary, it is one of the oldest subjects of inquiry and speculation. The philosopher, the theologian, the moralist, the man of science, and the economist have all devoted time to this subject, and each has made his contribution to it. Indeed, it is the opinion of many students in this field that some of the most significant contribu tions to our knowledge of society have been made not by writers who profess to be sociologists but by men who have turned their attention to those phases of social life which lie nearest their special fields of inquiry. Such writers have not occupied themselves with problems of nomenclature and classification, but have saved their energies for matters of more vital concern, whereas many of our formal treatises on sociology have been largely concerned with matters more formal than vital.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outline of Applied Sociology Many, if not most sciences, present two aspects or departments, closely related to each other but distinct from each other. The first department is that which is called the theoretic or pure science. Its function is to study phenomena, ascertain facts, and establish laws and principles. It has no object in view beyond the acquirement of knowledge. The second department is the practical or applied science. This division has much of the nature of an art, its purpose being to take the facts, principles, and laws worked out by pure science, and devise methods of utilizing them to serve some human purpose. It is telic in Professor Ward's phraseology. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Fields and Methods of Sociology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Fields and Methods of Sociology Classic Reprint written by L. L. Bernard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fields and Methods of Sociology His volume is intended to serve as a textbook for advanced T courses in sociology in which the purpose is to survey the various divisions of sociology as this science has developed in the United States in particular, and in all other countries where the subject is taught or studied. It emphasizes especially the sources of materials for investigation, the methods of research, and the processes of generalization in the various fields of sociological science. Present day sociologists are more interested in research than in classification. It is recognized, however, that intelligent research cannot be undertaken to the best advantage without an adequate understanding of the various divisions into which the general science of sociology falls. Consequently, the first part of the volume is devoted to an analysis of the fields and problems of sociology and the second part to sources and methods. While the volume is organized in textbook form, it is expected that it will appeal very largely to the general reader who is searching for a well organized and clear presentation of the subject of sociology in all its aspects. It is believed that the present volume offers the most complete and thoroughgoing analysis and synthesis of sociological content and methodology now available. I wish to emphasize especially the inductive approach of the present treatise. Every chapter is the result of a careful study of the data it treats. Speculative and a priori approaches have been avoided. Consequently each field of sociology has been analyzed realistically as to subject matter, sources and methods and the results are set forth as clearly and as simply and directly as pos sible.

Book Handbook of Classical Sociological Theory

Download or read book Handbook of Classical Sociological Theory written by Seth Abrutyn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first handbook focussing on classical social theory. It offers extensive discussions of debates, arguments, and discussions in classical theory and how they have informed contemporary sociological theory. The book pushes against the conventional classical theory pedagogy, which often focused on single theorists and their contributions, and looks at isolating themes capturing the essence of the interest of classical theorists that seem to have relevance to modern research questions and theoretical traditions. This book presents new approaches to thinking about theory in relationship to sociological methods.
