Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental human instincts that have driven society since the dawn of civilization. The author argues that these instincts, which include the urge to live, to make, to take, and to control, are as relevant today as they were in the days of our cave-dwelling ancestors. However, the book contends that these instincts cannot be the basis of a rational social order. Instead, the author advocates for a new form of government, one that emphasizes the scientific knowledge and practical skill of the people, and aims for a shared national purpose. The author posits that the key to achieving a truly successful society lies not in suppressing our instincts, but in channeling them toward a common good through a system of national industrial management. The book's insights, written in the aftermath of the First World War, offer a powerful critique of traditional power structures and a compelling vision for a more equitable and prosperous future.
