Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Social Ethics, the Social Conscience in a Democracy The fundamental problem of human life is the social problem or the problem of living together in a social order with the least friction and the richest possible conservation and development of human powers. Democracy is but the last and, we are more and more convinced, the best solution of the social problem. Democracy, therefore, whatever it may mean, is not ultimate; it is a means to an end. It is merely one of the many solutions that have been proposed for the fundamental problem of civilization. Democracy is true, then, not because it reflects the eternal order of things but because of its practical results. Of governments as well as of religious beliefs it may be said "By their fruits ye shall know them". Democracy being an attempt to solve a comprehensive problem will of course present many phases. Looked at from the point of view of the state, democracy may be denned as the vesting of the people with the sovereign power. The supreme advantage of popular rule is that through it freedom and responsibility, rights and duties, are most intimately related. The exercise of sovereignty emphasizes the obligations that accompany it. Men are made to feel that rights and duties are but different ways of viewing the same social situation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the premise called the sociology of accounting, this book explores the sociology in the relationship between the market (global) economy and the concept of a caring (or collectivist) society. The author places the 'idea of accounting’ as central to the social conscience in a functioning sense, and revisits topics like globalization, the impact on society of rapid scientific and technological changes, shifting moral and family values, and the role of education. Ending with a message of hope, solutions are developed that involve recognizing the authority of social conscience and giving education the key role in the proposed transformative social action.

Book excerpt: The Social Conscience tells of the past, discusses the present, and looks to the future of a caring society that rests of two fundamental but simple principles: the instinct to care and the necessity to share. The book provides a detailed analysis of how these principles define who we are and dictate the decisions we make when determining right from wrong in any situation, whether it concerns the actions of everyday people, government, or individuals holding power in a hierarchical structure. Shedding light on a subject widely discussed but rarely explained, The Social Conscience fully engages readers in a discussion of the nature of the social conscience and its social, political, business, and personal conduct. It explores the ways our decisions impact society, as well as the ways society impacts our decisions. Topics addressed in this highly accessible volume include the social consequences of a market economy, policy objectives and educational goals for empowering a caring society, conflict resolution, and the future of consciousness with respect to the dynamics of change. The 2013 release of The Social Conscience celebrates the revision of the well-received first edition of the title, which was published as a hardback in London in 2007.

Download or read book Democracy and Social Ethics written by Jane Addams and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well to remind ourselves, from time to time, that "Ethics" is but another word for "righteousness," that for which many men and women of every generation have hungered and thirsted, and without which life becomes meaningless. Certain forms of personal righteousness have become to a majority of the community almost automatic. But we all know that each generation has its own test, the contemporaneous and current standard by which alone it can adequately judge of its own moral achievements. To attain individual morality in an age demanding social morality, to pride one's self on the results of personal effort when the time demands social adjustment, is utterly to fail to apprehend the situation. This book is a study of various types and groups who are being impelled by the newer conception of Democracy to an acceptance of social obligations involving in each instance a new line of conduct. Jane Addams (1860-1935), known as the "mother" of social work, was a pioneer American settlement activist, public philosopher, sociologist, protestor, author, and leader in women's suffrage and world peace. In 1931 she became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and is recognized as the founder of the social work profession in the United States.

Book excerpt: Certain forms of personal righteousness have become to a majority of the community almost automatic. It is as easy for most of us to keep from stealing our dinners as it is to digest them, and there is quite as much voluntary morality involved in one process as in the other. To steal would be for us to fall sadly below the standard of habit and expectation which makes virtue easy. In the same way we have been carefully reared to a sense of family obligation, to be kindly and considerate to the members of our own households, and to feel responsible for their well-being.

Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking work, Jane Addams, a pioneering figure in the realms of social reform and activism, delves deep into the heart of societal structures, examining the intricate interplay between democracy and social ethics. As the founder of Hull House, a renowned settlement house in Chicago, Addams dedicated her life to addressing the pressing social issues of her time, from poverty and inequality to women's rights and peace activism. With keen insight and unwavering conviction, she navigates the complexities of a world teetering on the precipice of change, drawing from her own experiences as a tireless advocate for the marginalized and disenfranchised. She unveils the stark realities faced by communities on the fringes of society, shedding light on the pervasive injustices that threaten the very fabric of democracy. Jane Addams's profound impact on society was not confined to the local sphere. Her tireless efforts to promote peace and social justice reverberated on the global stage, earning her the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize in 1931. She was the first American woman to receive the award. This recognition cemented her status as a towering figure in the pantheon of social reformers, a beacon of hope for those striving to create a more equitable world. Addams asserts that mere passive belief in the inherent dignity of all human beings falls short. Instead, she contends that individuals must actively engage in the daily effort to eliminate racial, gender, class, and other biases from their personal relationships. Democracy and Social Ethics is not merely a book-it is a call to arms, a manifesto for change in a world yearning for justice. Addam's words resonate with a timeless urgency, challenging readers to confront the moral imperatives of our time and to forge a future where democracy and social ethics intertwine to create a more compassionate world for all.
