Synopsis

Standards of Public Morality is a book written by Arthur Twining Hadley, an American economist and educator. The book is a collection of essays that explore the role of public morality in society and its impact on public policy.Hadley argues that public morality is essential for the functioning of a democratic society, and that it should be based on universal principles that are grounded in reason and experience. He examines various issues related to public morality, such as the role of religion, the nature of human rights, and the limits of individual freedom.The book is divided into three parts. The first part examines the concept of public morality and its relationship to law and government. The second part explores the role of religion in public morality, and the third part looks at the practical implications of public morality for public policy.Throughout the book, Hadley draws on examples from history and contemporary society to illustrate his arguments. He also engages with the work of other thinkers and philosophers, including John Stuart Mill, Immanuel Kant, and Thomas Aquinas.Overall, Standards of Public Morality is a thought-provoking and insightful book that explores the complex relationship between public morality and public policy. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ethics, politics, or 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.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

John S. Kennedy Foundation in New York in November and December, 1906. The manner of treatment and choice of illustrations show that they were originally intended for the platform rather than for the printed page. It has not, however, been thought wise, in so short and unpretending a book as this, to make any serious change in their form. Should any one take up this book a few years hence, the author hopes he may find that, though the events in the foreground have changed, the underlying principles yet remain of value. NBW HAVEN, May,
