Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socialism and Modern Thought Numerous works have appeared within the last ten years on modern socialism, but the writer of this is not aware that anyone has shown the connection between the movement and the general current of thought, extending over the whole field of intellectual activity in the present day. And yet the true meaning of the socialistic movement cannot be understood without some comprehensive view of the age we live in, its philosophy of life, its leading scientific theories, its ethical conceptions, its peculiar mood of agnostic pessimism, its determined effort to perform the practical duties of life in spite of the weariness of spirit which comes of lost faith, its willingness to take up a standpoint on the sure ground of positive fact only, and its consequent preference for the Religion of Humanity or the Religion of Culture as substitutes for traditional creeds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Moral Basis of Socialism It is scarcely ten years since our daily papers, noting the rapid growth of the Socialist party in Germany, congratulated their readers on the impossibility of a like movement in this country. To-day Socialism in England has immeasurably outgrown its German progenitor. While in Germany Socialism has remained the vague protest of the oppressed worker, suffering under the introduction of the factory system of industry, in England it has become already a great social factor tending to leaven our legislation and likely, before long, to revolutionise our social habits. In Germany it has remained an ill-regulated political protest with an impracticable programme. In England, owing partly to the vigorous emotionalism of Carlyle and Ruskin, but principally to our more advanced economic development, it has become a political tendency and a moral force long before it has reached self-consciousness and formulated itself as a recognised movement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socialism and Character: A Contribution Towards a System of Applied Ethics I do not know Of any work on the same lines. I have tried to be both concrete and constructive, believing that the best way to expel anti-social tendencies in thought and action is to instil pro-social ideas and give the reasons for pro-social conduct. As Comte said, Nothing is destroyed until it is replaced and the Vandals are out in such numbers, and their blows fall with such vigour on the fabric Of conventional morality, that some replacement does indeed require to be done. Those who read these papers as they appeared week by week in justice will perhaps notice that the Chapter on the drink question has been omitted, as well as the portion of the second chapter leading up to it. This has been done, not because Of any material change Of opinion on the question, but because such a topic was apart from the constructive aim and character Of the book. L.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Passing of Capitalism: And the Mission of Socialism The economic structure of our modern society is clearly drifting towards the socialization of industry, and Social ism is preparing the people for this revolutionary change. The time is near when the tools of. Production and raw material will be turned over to the people engaged in pro duction, when production will be carried on, not for profit, but for consumption, when socialized production will be car ried on by society in the interest of society; in short, when society at large will be the master of its own economic destiny: Such a revolution in economic life demands a radical revision and readjustment of our moral conceptions; it demands a clear vision of the drift of our time and a great deal of en thusiasm in the cause of human welfare. This clearness of vision, this enthusiasm and the gospel of a new system of ethics Socialism brings to the people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catholic Socialism The social question - for, in the clear light of facts, who can deny that it exists - is not only based on an economic problem, but constitutes of itself a vast moral problem, the resolution of which modern society may try to delay, but which sooner or later must be faced. It is the Sphinx of modern times, and we stand in the presence of the same cruel dilemma which in by gone days tortured other societies no less flourishing, no less endowed with intellectual light than is our modern society cruel dilemma which. If we would not perish, must be solved. If in spite of our criticisms and its own errors and uncertainties, Socialism has spread so rapidly, it means that within its very nature lies a great moral force, which we may indeed refuse to acknowledge but cannot suppress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Socialism Various attempts to bring about a better social state have been made by earnest and noble-hearted men during the last hundred years. I leave aside such systems as those of the Moravians, because they cannot be regarded as in any sense schemes for the reconstruction of society. They, like the monastic communities, were merely attempts to create oases, fenced in from the world's evils, where men might prepare for a future life. The efforts I allude to are those classed as Socialistic; they were really crude forms of Communism. With these the name of Robert Owen will be for ever associated.

Download or read book A Study in Socialism Classic Reprint written by Benedict Elder and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study in Socialism What is Socialism? "I know if you do not ask me," said St. Augustine, when asked: What is Time? Most of us feel that we know what Socialism is until we begin to define it. It may be called a modem social phenomenon. It springs from modem industrial conditions as they are combined with the more modern phases of sentiment and thought. A more particular definition would only invite criticism and dispute. Socialists themselves arc not agreed on a definition. One says it is a religious movement, another a moral movement, another, a humanitarian movement. In the Communist Manifesto it is termed a "proletarian movement," in the Chicago platform, a "purely economic movement," in the Gotha and Erfurt Programs and other official utterances in Europe and America, a revolutionary movement, a political movement, a working-class movement, a movement for the abolition of classes, for better working conditions, for social justice, for the emancipation of labor, etc., etc. Then again, Socialism is defined to be not a movement but a principle, and again not merely a principle but a science.

Download or read book Socialism and Character Classic Reprint written by Henry Sturt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socialism and Character Can anyone who is not utterly callous profess himself to be content with our present social system? If he is content, he must either be blind or live far remote from our main centres of population. Let him visit the nearest industrial city and then defend, if he can, the system which brings such places into existence. Our industrial cities produce the wealth which is necessary to modern civilization; and what sinks of misery they are! Everyone detests them, except perhaps the capitalists who grow rich there. What English family would choose to live in Sheffield or Wolverhampton, still less in that full-blown growth of competitive commercialism, the East End of London? The material evils of our system are gross and palpable, and have made us a byword of reproach throughout the world. But corresponding to them there is also a spiritual mischief, which is even more deplorable to a thoughtful mind; a low morality, which is not confined to the poor people who live in the slums but spreads corruptingly through every rank and class of the community.

Download or read book The Larger Aspects of Socialism Classic Reprint written by William English Walling and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Larger Aspects of Socialism Socialism can be approached equally well from two opposite directions. It may be treated either as a social movement that aims to build up a new civilization, or as a new civilization that is gradually being embodied in a social movement. In my "Socialism As It Is" I followed the first method and discussed the economic and political features of Socialism exclusively; in the present volume I shall proceed in the reverse direction and deal exclusively with its larger aspects, its intellectual and spiritual side. As the two books were conceived and written together, they are parts of a single whole; but they are built on entirely independent foundations. In dealing with the economic and political movement I followed the inductive method; taking the activities of the movement itself as my point of departure, I concluded with its generalizations. In discussing the cultural movement I have followed the deductive method. Taking as my point of departure the philosophy of modern science, which I show to be wholly Socialistic in its bearings, and wholly dependent upon Socialism for its practical applications, I have first shown what results are reached by approaching each of the subjects I have discussed from this new standpoint, and I have then pointed out how the Socialist movement is, as a matter of fact, moving along the same line.
