Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Civilization of Christendom and Other Studies The following Addresses are printed so far as possible in the form in which they were delivered. But in some cases they were not fully written out before delivery, and have unavoidably been modified in preparation for the press. My thanks are due to the proprietors of the International Journal of Ethics and of the Charity Organisation Review for permission to reprint two of them. The various Societies before which the addresses were given, including the London Ethical Society, are of course not responsible for the views expressed in them. In the paper on Individualism and Socialism there is one point which I desire to modify. I think that I was wrong in favouring a differential Poor Law treatment of persons who have shown signs of thrift. Classification within Poor Law institutions, which is certainly desirable, should, I now think, be guided by present differences of age, sex, behaviour, physical condition, and sensitiveness. But differential treatment on account of past conduct seems to me a principle not reconcilable with the proper working of the Poor Law, and tending to widen the area of dependence on it.
