The Service of the State (Classic Reprint): Four Lectures on the Political Teaching of T. H. Green: Four Lectures on the Political Teaching of T. H. Green (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Discover Green’s idea that will, not force, grounds political power. This insightful study presents how J. H. Muirhead explains the bold claim that a state exists to set the proper conditions for free personality, not to rule by coercion alone.
This edition guides readers through how English political thought moved from contract theories to a view where individuals belong to a social whole from the start. It also addresses common objections, the role of circumstances, and how true self-government connects to imperial responsibility. With clear examples, the book links theory to the practical task of building loyalty, education, and a shared sense of national purpose.
- Understand why Green’s approach centers on social unity and the development of character within a political framework
- See how the idea of natural rights is recast as ideals that mature within organized society
- Explore how participation in government deepens loyalty and turns protection into citizen responsibility
- Consider how these ideas apply to both domestic governance and imperial policy
Ideal for readers of political philosophy and history who want a concise, accessible account of a challenging theory about state power and human freedom. It’s a thoughtful resource for students and general readers alike seeking a clearer picture of how the state can serve individual growth and social harmony.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the contrasting perspectives on the relationship between the individual and the state prevalent during the 1870s. The author argues that the reigning philosophical view of the time, which emphasized mechanical action and reaction between impressions and ideas, led to a denial of both human freedom and the possibility of true knowledge. The author contends that a reconstruction of philosophical theory is necessary to justify the unity between human purpose and nature, thought and practice. They assert that human consciousness is a unifying, interpreting, and interpene-trating principle and that to know is to relate. They argue that the reality of relations that can exist only in and for a mind implies the reality of a universal mind by which they are created and maintained. The author concludes that the true nature of our life in the world can only be understood when we have learned to know the principle that sustains it, not after the flesh but after the spirit. This book offers a comprehensive and coherent theory of the nature of the state and its relation to the individual, with insights that remain applicable to current problems.
