Synopsis

Excerpt from Industrial Ideals

It is no part of our purpose to consider for their own sake general theories of society and government. But it is necessary at the outset to make reference to one of them, as it will be necessary on occasion again where otherwise the industrial solution under discussion would not be completely intelligible. With the ordinary democratic theory we are familiar enough; but it is only in the government of subject races that Englishmen of this generation come face to face with the paternal or authoritarian ideal. Yet this ideal is clearly no less applicable to the internal government of a single country than to the government of dependencies by an Imperial Power. Instead of a whole people governing itself through a Parliament elected under a system of more or less universal suffrage, we might have two distinct classes, the governing and the governed - the former understanding, by reason of their superior education, wherein the latter's true interests consist, and having the good-will to act accordingly.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the key ideas of the various transformative utopian social and industrial reform movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, analysing their approaches, comparing their aims, and presenting their often radically opposing views on how industrial society should be organised. The author examines these ideas within their broader historical context, from classical liberalism through the rise of socialism to state socialism, syndicalism, guild socialism and Sovietism, discussing how they each sought to address the problems of poverty, inequality and the alienation of workers. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the major social and industrial reform movements of the period, and their enduring legacy on our thinking about these issues today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330425275_0
