Synopsis
Excerpt from Course in Banking: Lesson XVII, Economics
The indictment is a serious one. A social order against which such charges can be laid with any color of reason can not be considered perfect by even the most easy-going of opti mists. The socialist who focuses attention on the weak spots in the industrial structure performs a valuable service. Less ened though the service may be by the wholesale and indis criminating character of the denunciation. Candid recognition of the full extent of existing evils is the indispensable first step in progress and reform. Yet the indictment recorded fails to carry conviction to the impartial observer. It is beyond doubt onesided and exaggerated. The truth it contains nullified by the truth it neglects. He has grudged full recognition of the immensely strong points of our industrial system. He directs his shafts against a mythical extreme individualism. Ignoring the restraining social forces implicit in the existing order. Forces fully as characteristic as the scope and play which in the main are permitted to individual ambition and individual initiative. He has thrown the undivided blame for all the world's misery and failure-on social institutions. On the tools men use. Rather than on the limitations of the purely human men who use them.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the origins and implications of socialism, a movement that emerged in the 19th century to address the perceived shortcomings of capitalism. The author delves into the key tenets of socialism, including its critique of private property and exploitative labor practices. The discussion draws upon the writings of Karl Marx and other socialist thinkers to unpack the concepts of class struggle and surplus value. By setting socialism within the broader context of the Industrial Revolution and the rise of modern capitalism, the book highlights the historical and economic forces that shaped its development. It explores the varying forms of socialism, from utopian visions to more practical reformist proposals, and examines the ways in which socialist ideas continue to influence political and economic thought today. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the evolution and impact of socialism, offering valuable insights into its role in shaping modern societies and economies.
