Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Prof. Ford's book is a suggestive attempt to construct, from a study of such facts or reasonable implications of biology, anthropology, and philology as relate to the origin of man, a scientific theory of the origin and nature of the state. Briefly stated, the theory affirms that the state is as properly to be regarded an organism as is any form of animal life; that it has its origin in the formation of communities among animals earlier than man. . . . The Individual, accordingly, is a derivative rather than an original; the state Is absolute in its relation to the individual units; and different types of government develop according to the conditions and needs of different environments. . . . 'The test of value in any Institution to primarily not the advantage of the Individual but the advantage of society' (p. 177)." —The Nation "A scholarly contribution, of interest to advanced students in political science and students of government and law generally. List of authorities (4p.)." —The New Republic "As a whole, the book may be said to be an excellent summary of the argument for a social origin of society, as against the obsolete Individualism of the social contract theory, but it fails to prove that the state had a pre-human origin or to give a satisfactory notion of what the author means by state, government, and sovereignty." —Boston Transcript

CHAPTER X FIRST PRINCIPLES IN POLITICS 58. Appearance and Reality Use of the naturalistic concept as a principle of valuation does not escape the pressure of subjectivism that has been found to clog its practical application in methodology, but here at least logical defense against illusion is readily available. Corrective influence from this source may be made so familiar as to cause the reality to be substituted for the appearance as a habit of thought. Although one may seem to see the sun rise any clear morning, every educated person is unhesitatingly aware that what really happens is quite different from the appearance. Some analogous education of ability to distinguish between reality and appearance is a prerequisite to successful use of the naturalistic concept as a determinant. One must be prepared for the contingency of conflict with instinctive prepossessions or traditional notions. The matter may be illustrated by the case of insects which all biologists admit are products of social evolution. If a bee or ant be conceived to possess self-consciousness its sense of autonomous individuality might be complete despite the fact that in the social insects individuality is socially created and maintained. To ordinary view, what might be called common sense, an isolated social bee or ant is a complete individual. Only patient, trained observation has disclosed the fact that apparently complete individuals are so dependent upon the arrangements of the community that apart from it some of the adult forms can no more feed themselves than a newborn human child. The hive bee or the colony ant cannot, as a matter of physiological fact, be made a Stateless creature by separating it from the community. Apparently a monad, it is still in...

Download or read book A Comparative Introduction to Political Science written by Alan G. Smith and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When are legislators inclined to cast votes in cooperation with their parties, and when do they go their own way? When and why do nations contend with each other, and when are they more likely to cooperate? Thematically arranged around the interplay of contention and cooperation, A Comparative Introduction to Political Science encourages students to explore causal factors and consequences related to political phenomena to become knowledgeable and resourceful citizens of their nations and the world. Alan Smith covers how patterns of contention and cooperation—and the resulting government policies—may be affected by such factors as the surrounding political framework, the distribution of influence, and political motivation, including values as well as material interests. To expose students to the politics of specific nations, each chapter concludes with two country case studies that illuminate the theme of the chapter. Students emerge with a sense of what is going on in the world today. Pedagogically, the book employs careful sequencing of topics and concepts for clarity and to introduce politics in a natural, logical, synchronized way. At times Smith goes beyond sharp, night-and-day terminological distinctions to add accessible, ordinary language-based terminology that better captures the real-world spectrum between the extremes.

Download or read book The State written by Franz Oppenheimer and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1922 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The State represents the epitome of Franz Oppenheimer's thinking. It integrates political and historical philosophy on the one hand, with economic philosophy on the other. Oppenheimer believed the future progress of nations would be in the direction of liberal socialism. He foresaw a society free from all monopolistic tendencies through unfettered competition. According to Oppenheimer, competition is restrained by a powerful class monopoly, created not through economic differentiation, but through political power. This class monopoly stands between the masses and the land. The laboring class is subject to the will of the upper classes because it does not control the means of production necessary to work in its own interest. Oppenheimer asserts that the right to hold more land than one can properly work through his own efforts and the efforts of his family cannot exist without political control, and is the single most important explanation for the formation of monopolies in human society. He proves his theory in an original analysis. Paul Gottfried writes in the new introduction that The State sums up and illustrates Oppenheimer's general theory of the origin, development, and expected transformation of the state, central political institution of the modern world. Much of Oppenheimer's work embodies the same independent spirit reflected in his way of life. The State provides a wealth of information for economists, political theorists, and sociologists. Franz Oppenheimer was professor of economics and sociology at the University of Frankfurt in Germany until he retired in 1929. In 1933 he was forced to flee the Nazi regime and eventually came to the United States, where he died in 1943. Paul Gottfried is professor of political science at Elizabethtown College in Pennsylvania. He is the author of The Search for Historical Meaning; Carl Schmitt: Politics and Theory; Conservative Millenarians: The Romantic Experience in Bavaria; and After Liberalism (forthcoming from Princeton University Press). He is general editor of Religion and Public Life.
