Social Purpose: A Contribution To A Philosophy Of Civic Society is a book written by Hector James Wright Hetherington and published in 1918.

Hetherington argues that a civic society is one in which individuals are connected by a shared sense of purpose and a commitment to the common good. The author begins by examining the historical and cultural factors that have shaped the development of civic society, including the influence of religion, politics, and economics. He then explores the various ways in which individuals can contribute to the creation of a strong and vibrant civic society, including through education, social activism, and community building. Throughout the book, Hetherington emphasizes the importance of social purpose in creating a cohesive and supportive society. He argues that individuals must be motivated by a sense of responsibility and a desire to contribute to the greater good, rather than simply pursuing their own self-interest.
