Excerpt from Essays in Social Justice One of the surest signs of degeneration is the growth of sentimental as distinguished from practical morality, especially when it is combined with an ingrowing conscience. Sentimental morality is the sort which evaluates character and conduct by their ability to satisfy an inner sense of propriety, or to create within us the sensation of approval. Both character and conduct, under this system, come under what economists would call "consumers' goods" whose function is to please. Practical morality is the sort which evaluates character and conduct by their results. The test is thus objective and not subjective. "By their fruits ye shall know them" is robust and wholesome doctrine, though even this may be travestied by the defining fruits in subjective terms, under the alluring but delusive name of spiritual goods. An ingrowing conscience is one which leads its possessor to look continually inward upon his own motives and to try perpetually to test them by some supposedly inner knowledge as to what a motive ought to be like. Such a person is like one who would try to guide himself through the world by closing his eyes to the objects around him and following an assumed inner sense of direction. One school would have us believe that this inner knowledge, or intuition, is like the compass which the ship carries in her midst, which points unerringly fixed point outside the ship, and which, accordingly, becomes a safe guide.

Excerpt from Social Justice: A Critical Essay The present work lies within a sphere of inquiry to which ethics may perhaps lay the best claim, but to which economics and politics have nevertheless a valid right. While the facts dealt with by the several social sciences are largely the same, they are examined from different points of view. The special task which falls to the ethicist is the determination of the absolute value of social institutions, and the statement in as definite a form as possible of the principles which should govern men in their efforts to adjust their lives to the highest ideals of right and justice. In a certain sense, each social science has thus its own ethic. Each of these separate ethics must, however, rest upon general principles of right, which have first to be determined in the abstract. It is the aim of this volume to ascertain if possible, these general principles. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Social Justice a Message to Suffering Humanity When the manuscript of this book came first into my hands, I thought I was destined to peruse a mass of dry arguments that would leave unsolved the momentous problem of social justice. In common with all the world I had recognized that our institutions were wrong somewhere, and that most people's lives were failures - doomed so to be from birth. I had read volumes on social economics and I had heard politicians prophesy the good that was coming to the masses; but the philosophy of all the economists failed to satisfy, just as the promises of the office-seekers failed of realization. Therefore I began reading Jones' "Social Justice" with the feeling that there was nothing in it - that it would fail to satisfy, fail to even suggest any remedy for the wrong conditions that harassed me, in common with the rest of the toiling millions of the earth. I listlessly followed page after page, and at the end of the first chapter said to myself, "This man Jones at least writes sense. I cannot disagree with anything thus far. He proves every point made." So I read on, and gradually it dawned upon me that a new fundamental principle had been found, that the correct thinking and patient plodding of Percy Vivian Jones had enabled him to fathom the causes of the wrongs which civilization has developed, and to point out a reasonable remedy. I am naturally skeptic. I view everything new with distrust. I expect nothing good in a new book, and I seldom find it. Yet, Jones' theories of social justice have captured me completely. I endorse the book from cover to cover. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
