Publisher's Synopsis
Social Justice Without Socialism is a book written by John Bates Clark and published in 1914. The book explores the concept of social justice and argues that it can be achieved without resorting to socialism. Clark, an American economist and professor at Columbia University, believed that socialism was not the solution to the problems of inequality and poverty. Instead, he proposed a system that would allow for individual initiative and competition, while also ensuring that everyone had access to basic necessities. Clark believed that the key to achieving social justice was through the proper distribution of wealth and resources, and he advocated for policies such as progressive taxation and government regulation of monopolies. The book also includes discussions on topics such as the role of government in the economy, the nature of property rights, and the relationship between labor and capital. Overall, Social Justice Without Socialism is an important work in the history of economic thought and a thought-provoking exploration of the concept of social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
