Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Lectures in Political Sociology The materials of political science are so vast in scope and unlimited in detail as to depress a beginning student in search of generalities. Yet his political studies may benefit from an early understanding of certain key ideas. It is to political sociology that we may resort for this purpose, for political sociology treats of the social foundations of politics. It asks and gives answers to a number of questions the essential comprehension of which is the preliminary to further study of political behavior, political institutions, and public law. Among the basic questions it considers are: What is the relation between economics and politics? How do economics, politics, and religious ideologies interact and affect one another? To what extent does the social configuration of society - its classes, occupations, and levels of opportunity - permeate and condition political activities? Where does political power reside and how is it wielded? What general social changes are occurring and what political changes are associated with them? And who are the political leaders and what are their origins? Possessed of general answers to these questions, even though they be valid only for the time being, a student of political science gains certain advantages. He can reject or shed a volume of the data that crowds him from all quarters, holding it to be irrelevant or superfluous. He can relate the data he retains to categories which are intellectually useful and capable of being remembered. He can guard himself against the dangers of one-sidedness, the curse of narrowly trained and formally preoccupied minds. He can congratulate himself that he is being realistic, escaping the accusing "qu'importe?" of critical laymen and scholars alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Sociology This little work has been mainly the outcome of a course of lectures which I delivered at the School of Sociology of the Hartford Society for Education Extension in 1894 and 1895. They were given merely from notes in six lectures the first of these years, and expanded into twelve lectures the follow ing year in substantially their present form. The American Journal of Sociology having been instituted in that year, I was requested to contribute, and one of the twelve lectures appeared in each number from its first issue, that of July, 1895, until its twelfth, that of' May, 1897, forming an uninter rupted series.

Book Man and the State

Download or read book Man and the State written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Man and the State: Studies in Applied Sociology; Popular Lectures and Discussions Before the Brooklyn Ethical Association The topics herein discussed, though following naturally those considered in the previous volumes on Evolution, Sociology, and Evolution in Science, Philosophy, and Art, were selected for treatment at this time in view of our approaching presidential contest. Treating, as they do, of the relations of the individual to the State as illustrated in the practical issues of current American politics, it was not without consultation with those whose wisdom and judgment will be recognized by all intelligent Americans that the trustees of the Brooklyn Ethical Association finally decided upon the adoption of this programme. Among those who were thus consulted was the Hon. Andrew D. White, ex-president of Cornell University and now the United States Minister to Russia, who gave the proposition his cordial indorsement and encouragement. "I find my thoughts more and more conforming themselves to the idea of an evolution of humanity," he wrote; "more and more everything I work out takes shape with reference to this. Hence I shall look with increasing interest to the result of your effort in Brooklyn during the coming year.... Persevere by all means." Prof. John Fiske also gave the plan of the association his hearty approbation. "I have carefully read the inclosed synopsis," he affirmed, and call it a noble scheme. Such lectures and discussions are just what is needed." The Hon. James S. Clarkson, the Hon. George Hoadly, and others of various party connections, actively interested in the practical aspects of our political situation, personally and in an extensive correspondence also expressed their profound interest in our work, and their confidence in its supreme importance as a means of political education. Superficially it may appear that we already have an embarras de richesses of political discussions, particularly in our presidential years. The projectors of these lectures, however, had quite another object in view than that of adding to the literature of partisan debate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pure Sociology: A Treatise the Origin and Spontaneous, Development of Society It was upon my notes as thus classified that in 1897 I delivered two courses of lectures before the Summer School of the University of Chicago, one on Pure Sociology and the other 011 Applied Sociology. These two courses of lectures under the same titles, but with ever increasing volume of data, I repeated in 1898 at the University of West Virginia, and in 1899 at Leland Stanford Junior University. I think I can therefore justly claim the right, after three years more of research along the same lines, to give to the work in which the first of these classes of materials is systematically elaborated the title of Pure Sociology which I have always applied to that class, and should I succeed in systematically collating the materials of the second class and in reducing them to a suitable form for publication, I shall crave permission to give to them for like reasons the title Applied Sociology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Christian Sociology: A Series of Lectures at Princeton Theological Seminary and Marietta College on Moral Reforms and Social Problems, With 20th-Century Statistics When politics first came into our author's life as an influence, in the days of Fremont and John Brown, national issues were not questions of commerce but of conscience. The conquering elements of politics then boldly avowed allegiance to the Decalogue and the Golden Rule. It was felt by the most efficient reformers to be a momentous truth that man can neither make nor break law - though it may break him. He can only translate the one supreme law into its applications to current affairs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Society It will appear from these addresses that we had no idea of forming either a sect or a political party, nor even a Church in any narrow sense. From the first all those with whom I was associ ated, and myself as leader and guide, treated thef scheme of Comte as an Ideal which the future. Might work out, but of which we could only form a School to influence opinion. Everything we did was open to the public, gratuitous, and informal. We made no terms for adhesion in any degree, no rules or pledges, no attempt at legislative action. We were simply a group of men who aimed at' guiding public opinion - attacking none, never disturbing any genuine faith, not seeking any personal power or privilege. The Lectures I now issue were part of the Courses which I gave fre quently at Newton Hall and elsewhere to several Positivist Societies in various cities. As there was. Nothing in them of exclusive dogma or formal sect, they were delivered or repeated to sundry Ethical or Free Thought Societies in England and in America, at which I had been invited to speak.
