Democracy And Social Ethics (1902)

Democracy and Social Ethics is a book written by Jane Addams and published in 1902. Addams was a social reformer and activist who founded Hull House, a settlement house in Chicago that provided services to immigrants and the poor. In this book, Addams argues that democracy cannot be fully realized without a commitment to social justice and ethical responsibility. She explores the relationship between democracy and social ethics, examining issues such as poverty, labor rights, education, and women's suffrage. Addams also critiques the social Darwinism and individualism that were prevalent in her time, arguing that they were incompatible with democracy and social progress. The book is a seminal work in the field of social ethics and a call to action for those who believe in the importance of democracy and social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
