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 The War and Our Social Problems T is at a time of strain that we can best con sider the deep-lying tendencies which run through social development, just as it is at a time of national anxiety that we can best discover to what an extent religion still retains its hold on the people. The pleasant ness of peace allures us from year to year to forgetfulness. We are easy and confident. The day brings its work and evening its guerdon of release. Great movements ultimately affecting the social organism are in process, but they operate so slowly that we fail to appreciate them. To-day these movements are visible, for events follow upon events with appalling rapidity. Our nation has entered into a dreadful struggle with high emprise. But so severe is the struggle and so wide 5. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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 Problems of National and International Politics The subject of this lecture sounds controversial, but I 'do not think my address will be dragged into the arena of controversy for some time to come. In a way I wish it would form a topic of hot debate, for then it would mean that the world is changing in its views on political problems. We have often heard that Theosophy has nothing to do with politics; but I do not think any instructed member of our Society will rule out of court the study and exposition of such problems of politics as I desire to place before you to-day, though I am inclined to believe that the world outside the Theosophical Society will pass it by, with a good natured shrug of the shoulder.

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 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Problems: Their Treatment, Past, Present, and Future: A Lecture Delivered at the Galton Laboratory for National Eugenics, March 19, 1912> Well, as a 'consistent Socialist' I mean in and out of season to preach to the inconsistent Socialist that nature is more important than nurture, and that no social changes can be stable which neglect this great truth. I do not see why we should lose all the emotional force, all the enthusiasm behind the idea that all politics must be socialistic, that all politics tend towards social welfare, because in the past and at the present so many political movements find no justifica tion whatever in our growing knowledge of the laws of human development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Social Problems: An Introduction to the Study of Society Democracy and liberty for all are not assured until every individual in society realizes his duty toward other members of his group. The individual and the The new group are reciprocal. Each exists for the benefit m of the other and their interests must harmonize if social welfare is to be attained. The monk of the Middle Ages, immured in his hermit cell, might work out his own in dividual salvation while the, social group the world around him went perhaps to perdition. The twen tieth century ideal, however, is that of rendering social service, and he is greatest in society who best serves his fellows. This modern ideal is the antithesis of medieval isolation. It is the ideal of socialization the twentieth century spirit of Christianity. The Study of Society. Since the dawn of civilization man has sought an explanation of the world about him. The early literature of each race, such as the my thologies of the Chaldeans and of the Greeks, has its own national and characteristic explanation. Existing institutions and codes of law are explained in terms of some mythical lawgiver like the Spartan Lycurgus. From the days of ancient Israel is heard the story of oppression, and prophets of old from Moses to Amos lift up their voices in protest against the social evils of the day. Each age has dreamed its own Utopia which the march of cen tuties has not yet brought to pass. Among the early Greeks, Plato imagined an ideal Republic in which the just man could live in happy security; while the drones worked, the soldiers policed and the philosophers ruled. He was followed by the more practical and less idealistic Aristotle who, as tutor of Alexander the Great, had an opportunity to visit the ancient world and make a comparative study of the constitutions of the various city states existing at that time. In his book called Poli tics appears the oft-quoted statement that man is a political animal, a being to whom political association is natural.

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.
