Print on Demand. This book is on the brink of a significant societal shift that is highlighted by the urgent need to replace the old social order. The author suggests that the devastating effects of war have greatly accelerated this transition and necessitated profound societal change. The author believes that the transition requires addressing both practical and spiritual aspects. As the old order crumbles, emerging new principles begin to define the future. These principles are not viewed as final products, but rather evolving ideals that humanity can continually aspire to and apply. The author, a teacher of Christian ethics, draws parallels between these principles and the teachings of Jesus, suggesting their historical development and relevance to the current situation. While acknowledging the complexity of the issues involved, this book emphasizes the fundamental importance of justice, efficiency, and a focus on individuality. It also underscores the urgent need for religious and spiritual transformation alongside social and economic change. Ultimately, this book seeks to provide a roadmap for navigating the transition to a new social order, balancing the preservation of valuable traditions with the creation of a more just and equitable society for all. 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.…

A clear, urgent look at how economic reform can reshape society for the common good.
This edition of The New Social Order: Principles and Programs examines how a national minimum and planned employment could protect initiative, reduce poverty, and expand equal opportunity. It argues that organizing industry as a shared responsibility can support every worker and strengthen democracy.
The text surveys late-19th and early-20th century ideas about labor, unemployment, and social insurance, then presents concrete measures a government might take to prevent insecurity. It links economic reform with moral purpose, urging a shift from private gain to social welfare and emphasizing the need for worldwide solidarity.- Understanding how a universal minimum wage and security of employment could stabilize living standards.
- Learning why public works, shorter hours, and education access are proposed to maintain employment and opportunity.
- Seeing the case for organizing industry as a common undertaking to support growth and creativity.
