Présentation de l'éditeur

Hansen stheory of the Bevolkerungsstrom, or population current, is in sociology what the theory of the circulation of the blood is in medicine. This book owes much to him. My earlier data have been drawn largely from American conditions; the differences between them and those in Germany, which Dr. Hansen knows best, led me to my first new idea that the nearness or remoteness of the Malthusian limit is the key to these differences in conditions. This brought me to the theoretical consideration of a static condition, and the generalization of a two-class system, which covers Hansen sthree classes in a different perspective, and seems the logical extreme. This gives a long-needed division of the troublesome question as to whether the family or the individual is the unit of society. Provide recognition for both, in distinct classes necessitated by understood conditions, and the whole social organism seems simplified.
