Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Conflict Between Individualism and Collectivism in a Democracy: Three Lectures
All well-organized unions inculcate sub mission to the majority rule, obedience to officers elected for short terms, and supreme loyalty to the union in all cases of conflict of loyalties. These are collective doctrines, taught for the purpose of securing common action on the part of large bodies of men who believe themselves to have a common interest as a class, or group, or set, to promote which they are willing to forego a large part of their liberty as individuals.
