A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

From the PREFACE.
My volume on "The Principles of Sociology" is described in the preface as an attempt to combine the principles of sociology in a coherent theory. In plan and method the book is on the whole concrete rather than abstract. Consequently, the theoretical propositions that it contains are scattered through many pages of descriptive and historical matter, and are nowhere brought together in a didactic series. It is therefore possible that not every reader of the volume has perceived the coherence of its theory, and that classes using the book as a text have experienced a degree of difficulty in arranging its theoretical propositions in a consecutive order.
The theory assumes that certain adaptations of the individual to the physical world, certain economic experiences, ideas, and activities, and certain ethical experiences, ideas, and tendencies, precede social life (see "The Principles of Sociology," pp. 41-45, 100-103, 239).
The theory itself, as distinguished from these presuppositions, comprises the following propositions, namely: first, certain affirmations about the modes of aggregation which, bring individuals that are more or less alike into contact and acquaintance; second, certain propositions about the more important modes of resemblance which may be observed in any aggregation of individuals; third, propositions about a ;onsciousness of similarity or of kind, which, it is alleged, is the true cause of social phenomena; fourth, propositions about the reactions of association and of the consciousness of kind upon individual motives, conduct, and character; fifth, propositions about the organization of the consciousness of kind into a social mind, and about its expression in social purpose and control; sixth, propositions about the laws of social choice; seventh, propositions about the establishment of definite social relations and institutions by the social mind; and, eighth, propositions about the persistence of social choices and institutions.
Of these propositions the ones about the modes of resemblance and the consciousness of kind are of chief importance. They contain or involve the entire theory.
