Synopsis

G. K. Chesterton’s famous thesis explores the subjects of poverty, agriculture, machinery, capital gain, and concentration of wealth from an anti-capitalist viewpoint.

This fascinating volume argues the threat to smaller businesses as corporate companies become more dominant. Fiercely relevant almost 100 years after its first publication, The Outline of Sanity is G. K. Chesterton’s insightful exploration of humanity’s future. He criticises both the scientific management theory and Marxist Trotskyism, questioning the longevity of democracy. First published in 1926.

- Some General Ideas

- The Beginning of the Quarrel

- The Peril of the Hour

- The Chance of Recovery

- Some Aspects of Big Business

- The Bluff of the Big Shops

- A Misunderstanding about Method

- A Case in Point

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This early collection of articles is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. It contains a series of social commentaries on subjects of property ownership and politics. This is a fascinating work and highly recommended for anyone interested in the journalism of the early Twentieth Century. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
