Excerpt from Three Types of Practical Ethical Movements of the Past Half CenturyEach of the three types of the practical ethical reform movements rests on a different basic principle from which it derives the greater part of its strength and no small share of its weakness. To set these forth by an analysis of the movements both in their historic developments and in their principles is the object of this work. Whatever positive contribution to practical ethics is to be found herein, has been set forth not as a separate and altogether new thesis - for in a treat ment of practical ethical reform movements, this would involve, nay necessitate, the formation of a differ ent and entirely new movement which is not at all necessary - but has been embodied in the negative criticisms of the Religious Ethical Movement in Chap ter I and of the Social Ethical Movement in Chapter II, but more directly in the positive and favorable criticism of the Pure Ethical Movement treated in Chapter III.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
