Liberty And Law : Being An Attempt At The Refutation Of The Individualism Of Mr. Herbert Spencer And The Political Economists
Other Available Formats
Overview
""Liberty and Law"" is a book written by George Lacy, which attempts to refute the individualistic ideas of Mr. Herbert Spencer and the political economists. The book argues that individualism, as espoused by Spencer and others, is a flawed ideology that fails to account for the role of society and the need for collective action to ensure the common good. Lacy argues that liberty and law are not mutually exclusive concepts, but rather are complementary and necessary for a just and equitable society. The book provides a detailed critique of Spencer's ideas, including his views on property, competition, and the role of the state. It also explores alternative theories of political economy, such as socialism and communism, and argues that these systems offer a more equitable and just alternative to individualism. Overall, ""Liberty and Law"" is a thought-provoking and challenging work that challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about the relationship between liberty, law, and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
