This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Syndicalism, Industrial Unionism and Socialism I trust that the statement of the Syndicalist position which I shall make will satisfy most thoroughly Of all the thoughtful Syndicalist, who knows just why he is a Syndicalist, and is not merely a victim of the glitter Of new phrases. I shall impute nothing to my Syndicalist friends which is not frankly set forth in their own literature. My own interest, not less than theirs, requires a perfectly true and balanced account of the essentials of Syndicalism and a disregard for non-essentials im posed upon it by individual idiosyncrasies. This is not easy of attainment, for Syndicalism is in the formative stage. Its doctrines are not fully developed, its philosophy is rather chaotic. But I shall try to state the case for Syndicalism more clearly and consecutively than has yet been done in English, with a determination to be scrupulously fair.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socialism and Syndicalism The Social Condition of the People is the dominating question of the age. In all th industrial countries of the world the problems of labour and capital, of poverty and wealth, and of the innumerable issues which arise out of the consideration of these subjects, are forcing themselves upon the attention of statesmen, moralists, religious teachers, and all who have any regard for their own interests or for the welfare of their fellows. In every Parliamentary country the Labour Question is constantly forcing itself upon the attention of the Legislature, and in an ever increasing measure the time of statesmen and politicians is devoted to dealing with industrial and social questions. Political parties compete with each other in offering proposals for solving the problem of poverty, and in all Parliamentary countries the election issues are practically confined to questions of indus trial reform and social reorganisation. There have been times of great social un rest in the past, but never before has there been such universal attention given to the question of social reform, and never before has there been such widespread discontent with undesirable and undeserved conditions of poverty. A feature Which distinguishes the unrest of the present time from former periods of disaffection is the extent to Which the working-classes are assisted by inhumer able organisations, composed largely of cul tured and leisured people, formed for the purpose of scientific inquiry into the various aspects of the Social Problem. The Univer sities have been caught in the movement of the age, and both in their corporate capacity, and to a greater extent by the voluntary association of individual members, are making invaluable contributions to the general stock of knowledge upon economic and social ques tions. The Churches of all denominations have largely abandoned the former attitude of 'other worldliness, ' and are realising that if that institution is to justify its existence, and to command the support of the democracy, it will have to concern itself with the social condition of the people, and will have to actively advocate such reforms in our indus trial and social life as will permit men and women to develop their physical and moral faculties.

Download or read book Proposed Roads to Freedom written by Bertrand Russell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proposed Roads to Freedom: Socialism, Anarchism and Syndicalism This book is an attempt to compress into a small compass a discussion which would require many vol umes for its adequate treatment. It was completed in April, 1918, in the last days before a period of imprisonment. At that time few would have ven tured to prophesy that the fighting would end before the New Year. The coming of peace has made the problems of reconstruction the more urgent. The author has attempted to examine briefly the growth and scope of those pro-war doctrines which aimed at fundamental economic change. These doctrines are considered first historically, then critically, and it is urged that, while none can be accepted en bloc, all have something to contribute to the picture of the future society which we should wish to create.

Critical analysis of existing institutions, a socialist ideal, and a peculiar conception of revolutionary methods to be used for the realization of the ideal-are all contained in it. Revolutionary Syndicalism appears, therefore, as a phase of the general movement towards a reorganization of society on socialist principles.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socialism and Personal Liberty Readers of My Second Country will find that the opinion that I expressed in that book about the dictatorship of the proletariat as a method of transition from capitalist to Socialist Society is modified here. The reasons for that modification, arising from the experience of the dictatorship of the proletariat in Russia, are explained in the chapter on the subject. I would warn the reader that the descriptions of various Socialist systems given in the present book are necessarily very summary and incomplete and need to be supplemented. It is not my purpose to give a complete exposition of Socialist theory, nor would that be possible within the limits of a small volume. All that I have been able or have tried to do is to touch on the various theories merely in their relation to the particular question of personal liberty.

If not, what follows? Two years ago, I found in a Pittsburg suburb the first sure sign of Syndicalism that I had seen in the United States since its abrupt formation out of that portentous strike of Colorado miners in 1903 - 4. It was a strike in which the lawlessness of labor was matched and outmatched by the lawlessness of capi tal. The fruits of it were Syndicalism, or, as here named, the Industrial Workers of the World. Belted and armed, it now enters the arena of discon tent. For several weeks in 1911, I watched it in a half dozen cities on the Pacific coast.

Download or read book Karl Marx and Modern Socialism Classic Reprint written by F. R. Salter and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Karl Marx and Modern Socialism This book is not in any way an anti-collectivist pamphlet; nor does it claim to be either an original or a profound study of Marxism. But the life of Marx is so little known, either by friend or foe, and his teaching so often reduced to a few bald shibboleths, that there may perhaps be room for a sketch of him as he was in relation to the thought and the circumstances of his age, describing at the same time, in rough outline, the development of the labour movements of Europe to whose growth he contributed so much. The writer is one of those who are so genially described in certain quarters as "class-biassed teachers in Universities," but he can plead practical knowledge of W.E.A. Tutorial Classes as, in some sense at least, a corrective to academic prejudice, and he is anyhow old-fashioned enough to doubt whether the writing of history must of necessity be only a class, or mass, interpretation of the past. Marx has certainly had less than justice done him hitherto because class interpretations have made him out as either an impeccable hero or a worthless ruffian: this deluge of praise and blame, in each case so often entirely undiscriminating, has had the effect of turning into an inhuman and almost legendary figure one who was in point of fact a very lovable, very exasperating but essentially real, though often wrong-headed, enthusiast.

Download or read book Socialism and Co Operation Classic Reprint written by Leonard Woolf and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socialism and Co-Operation The object of this book is to examine the relations between co-operation and socialism, to determine, if possible, the part which the co-operative system might play in a socialistic society. By co-operation I mean the consumer's type of cooperation which has developed in the distributive and wholesale societies of the existing co-operative movement. In these pages I shall assume generally that the reader knows how that movement is constituted and organized and that he understands the principle underlying the co-operative system of industry. I have already in another book. Co-operation and the Future of Industry, given a general description of the movement and of its characteristics as an industrial system, and I must refer to that book any reader who desires detailed information on or discussion of those points. While, however, I do not propose to give a detailed description either of co-operation or of socialism, it is impossible to arrive at a clear understanding of the relations between them, unless we have first stated clearly what we mean by co-operation and what we mean by socialism. In this chapter I shall attempt to clear the ground by defining socialism and co-operation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Socialism For the study of socialism two things are essential on the part of the reader - good-will and the open mind. Socialism has at least a most powerful pro visional claim on our good-will, that it professes to represent the cause of the sufferers in the world's long agony, of the working - classes, of women, and of the down - trodden nations and races. If it can make any solid contribution in such a far-reaching cause it has the strongest right to be heard.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guild Socialism: A Plan for Economic Democracy This book does not claim to be an authoritative statement of Guild Socialism in the sense that it would be accepted by all, or by a majority of, Guild Socialists. There is, I am glad to say, no such thing as a strict Guild orthodoxy; and for the most part it can only claim to be an expression of personal opinion. I think, however, that where the matters discussed in it have been the subject-matter of actual Conference decisions of the National Guilds League, the views here taken will be found to be substantially in agreement with those ex pressed by the League. This can be seen by a reference to the reports published by the League, in which the most important of its Conference decisions are contained.
