Présentation de l'éditeur
Progressive, Labor, and Socialist parties, I believe I have given fully as much space to pointing out the very great services they are destined to render as in showing their limitations. But these movements are exceedingly popular. The public is accustomed to hear their claims expressed with every degree of eloquence, while the only criticism that is ordinarily heard is the entirely negative and destructive one of the reactionaries and conservatives, who at the bottom are satisfied with things as they are, or, at most, are content with a very modest rate of progress, and would have wished to kill the new movements before they were born. There has been little or nothing of that constructive criticism which considers such movements as natural products of social evolution with certain definite functions to fill, acknowledges that they have a future neither entirely bad nor entirely good, and shows that they also have certain limitations like everything else. Since these limitations are so little discussed, and since the public is more or less familiar with much of what I have to say in praise of these movements, it is probable that the spirit of criticism will, at first, impress many readers as dominating this book. I have tried throughout every chapter to avoid giving any ground for such an impression, and believe that if the book nevertheless has this effect on some persons, it will be due to previous reading of uncritical works rather than to any fault of mine.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book studies the relationships between Progressive, Labor, and Socialist parties, allocating space to the great services they're destined to render and their limitations. At the time of writing, the author acknowledges their popularity and the universal positive coverage of their claims. However, the author's unique perspective allows them to bring to light criticisms of these movements that are typically absent from public discourse, exploring the limitations that are usually neglected or ignored. The author's political philosophy is clearly stated: in any inevitable conflict between a lower and higher social group, any truly progressive person must side with the lower group. The ruling social group will primarily utilize its power for its own purposes and is, therefore, an exploiting group until it's no longer possible to rule and exploit. The genuine progressive must, consequently, view all social questions from the standpoint of the lower half of the population, which comprises several elements but primarily consists of unskilled labor and is often allied with clerical labor, poorer professionals, and the aristocracy of labor. An individual who desires maximum social progress will, therefore, side with the laboring masses over the aristocracy of labor and with the aristocracy of labor over small capitalists and, finally, with progressives over conservatives, despite the fact that the latter might appear to represent nothing more than the interests of small capitalists against large. The author acknowledges the unpopularity of this position but argues that not only is it increasingly followed by many people, but that the unskilled, even when organized and at war with the skilled, still vote for the latter's Labor Parties. The author's key argument is that Socialist and Labor Parties, the world over, support radicals and progressives in every struggle against conservatives and that the number of people following this policy will increase substantially as our political machinery allows a full and free expression of opinion. This book presents an in-depth analysis of its topic. The author's perspective and insights provide readers with a fresh understanding of the present and future of politics. The book is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the evolution of political thought and the future of progressive movements.
