Publisher's Synopsis
Socialism Exposed And Refuted: A Chapter From The Author�������s Moral Philosophy (1902) is a book written by Victor Cathrein that critiques the principles and beliefs of socialism. The book is part of the author's larger work on moral philosophy and aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the flaws and inconsistencies of socialist ideology.Cathrein begins by defining socialism and its various forms, including communism and anarchism. He then proceeds to analyze the fundamental principles of socialism, such as the abolition of private property and the establishment of a classless society. He argues that these principles are inherently flawed and incompatible with human nature and the principles of justice.The author also examines the economic aspects of socialism, such as the theory of surplus value and the labor theory of value. He critiques these theories, arguing that they are based on faulty assumptions and do not accurately reflect the realities of the market economy.Throughout the book, Cathrein draws on a variety of sources, including classical philosophers, economists, and political theorists, to support his arguments. He also provides a historical perspective on socialism, tracing its origins and development from the early utopian socialists to the more radical Marxist and anarchist movements of the late 19th century.Overall, Socialism Exposed And Refuted: A Chapter From The Author�������s Moral Philosophy is a comprehensive critique of socialist ideology that will be of interest to anyone interested in political theory, economics, or moral philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
