Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sociology and Modern Social Problems This book was originally written as an elementary text in sociology for use in high schools, colleges, and reading circles where it is desired to combine the study of sociology with a study of current social problems on the one hand, and to correlate it with a course in economics on the other. The generous reception and wide use which the book has enjoyed since its publication seem to indicate that there is a demand for a simple, concrete text in sociology in which methodological discussions are reduced to a minimum and the facts are drawn as far as possible from contemporary social life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Major Social Problems Everything is in the hands of Jehovah - crops, health, long life, birth and death. If a good thing befell the people, the credit belonged to him; if misfortune came, they had sinned by disobedience and idolatry. The Hebrew could not move without being guided by his god, who even giveth his beloved sleep. This attitude has survived in the Puritans to this day, and the long list of evils mentioned in church litanies with the petition: Good Lord, deliver us, furnishes ample testimony that the same attitude still survives elsewhere.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Problems: A Study of Present-Day Social Conditions The aim in this work is not to make original contributions to the subjects discussed, but rather to collect the available material on these subjects and arrange it in such form that it may be used advantageously as a basis for study in the classroom. The work is intended primarily for beginners in the field of social studies - for those who may desire a better understanding of present-day social questions. It deals largely with facts and with an analysis of conditions. Pure theory is kept in the background as much as possible in the thought that the more abstruse theoretical questions should be left for more advanced courses. The effort has been made to present the matter in as clear and in as impartial a manner as is possible; also care has been taken to give the authority for practically every important statement of fact made. Through the use of the supplementary questions and the references at the end of each chapter, ample material may be found for a college or normal school course on this subject. It is also hoped that the references given and topics suggested will be of assistance to reading circles and study clubs that may wish to pursue such a course of study as is here presented. Although the book deals mainly with the evils, or at least the weaknesses, in our social system, yet it is hoped that a spirit of optimism pervades the work - an optimism based on the knowledge of past achievements in social progress and inspiring us to greater efforts in the future. The trend of education to-day is toward a better understanding of our own times. The past century was characterized by great advance in the physical sciences - in the control of physical forces. The indications arc that the present century may be characterized by great advance in the social sciences - in the control of social forces. Already great movements are under way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems in American Society: Some Social Studies Let the light Shine into every nook and comer, and let every piece be tested; for, if there is anything out of order, it is high time that it be mended, and, if there is anything which has become obsolete, it is high time that it be cast aside for something better. Criticism will lead in creativeness, and after wild vagaries will come the saner mood. Vast improvements in the form and content of human life will result from this free and intense application of thought to all these questions of poverty, crime, education, economics, and religious co-operation. It is only by such discussion that we can hope to reach modes of life, individual and corporate, on a level with our intelligence. And one of the most hopeful indications of the hour is this growing interest in all matters which pertain to the problem of living. The social impulse which seeks to put a truth to divine uses is as necessary as the scientific spirit which seeks to discover that truth.

Download or read book Major Social Problems written by Rudolph Michael Binder and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-14 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Major Social Problems Plans and schemes by the hundred have been worked out to meet the new conditions growing out of the World War. They attack this evil and remedy that situation. On the whole, they leave us where we were, because they deal with what may be called minor social problems. Underlying these minor problems are the major social problems which deal with fundamental principles and attitudes. The author has attempted to discuss these in the following pages. Unless we face the facts as we find them and try to find solutions for them, we may never succeed in evolving a better society. This task demands courage and an open mind. The author wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness directly to the late Frank Lester Ward, to Professors Franklin H. Giddings of Columbia University and Edward A. Ross of Wisconsin University and to many other writers indirectly, although with no less sincere appreciation. The material of this book has been used in classes at New York University. References and questions for each chapter have been added at the end of the volume in the hope that other teachers may find them of use in their classes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Social Problem: Life and Work Tms volume is designed to be an informal introduction to the science and art of social progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings in Social Problems: Edited With an Introduction The problem. Is now recognized, too, as a question of the quality, as well as the quantity, of population. The eugenics idea, whether or not it prove capable of development into a new science, the foundation for a new population policy, the con scious improvement of the human stock, - has Opened our eyes to some very present evils and dangers. It is unfortunate that our knowledge of the laws of heredity, which is the basis of eugenics, is so uncertain and fragmentary, and that the progress of investigation must necessarily be slow. Otherwise we might look for a rapid and at the same time sure progress of both theoretical and practical eugenics. Even with the advance of genetic psychology and experimental genetics much doubt must continue to exist with regard to the relative in uence of environ ment and heredity. The laymen may well await the verdict of time, also, as to the validity of the methods of investigation used by the biometricians of the Pearson school in England, and of Mendelism, upon which as a working hypothesis the investiga tions of the Eugenics Record Office,1 and most other American work, are being carried out. Meanwhile it is desirable to know what the problems of eugenics are, and what the difficulties in the way.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Work and Life: A Study of the Social Problems of to-Day It is a commonplace remark that social progress should be by evolution and not by revolution. It is, indeed, something more (or less) than a commonplace. Progress is, itself, a phase, and revolution an incident, of evolution. The remark, therefore, easily analyses itself into the expression, Social evolution should come by social evolution, - no momentous contribution to social philosophy. If, however, one means by such: a remark that progress should be peaceful, it does not yet express all that is desired in a theory of social advancement. For social progress may be peaceful and yet be exceedingly slow, and involve excessive waste. It should be not only peaceful but conscious and intelligent. It may then be rapid and permanent. This, however, demands a genuine recognition on the part of the people of the injustice inherent in existing social relationships, and a fairly definite conception of social well-being, - of the actual and the ideal, of how we live and how we might live. The first step, then, to ordered social progress is general social insight. Before we can have a better society it must somehow get into the minds of the people.
