| Editorial Review |
| In the late 19th century, after the economic and social upheaval of the Civil War was finally begin to settle down, many political thinkers saw such troubled times coming again, and believed that socialism was the way to head it off. In this 1884 work, a lost classic of American Socialism, LAURENCE GRONLUND (1846-1899), American lawyer, writer, and worker for the Socialist Labor Part, expounds on his concepts for how socialism might work in the New World. Here he discusses. . capital: mainly accumulated fleecings . interest: a fair division of the spoils . social anarchy . capitalists monopolize all wealth and social benefits . speculative vampires . a rhythmical swing from individualism to social co-operation . the commonwealth will insure freedom . why collectivism is not communism . a collectivist state in outline . democracy means administration by the competent . an end to drudgery . morals in the co-operative commonwealth . labor organizations are the skeletons of the new order . and much more. |
