Synopsis
Excerpt from The Elements of Political Science: In Two Books; Book 1. On Method, Book 2. On Doctrine
IT may perhaps be imagined that the principles con tained in the present volume are of too abstract or too metaphysical a character to be capable of redue tion to real practice.
Let us therefore, in the first place, endeavour to understand what is meant by metaphysics, and to inquire whether all rational hopes of human progres sion and human amelioration must not be based on the improved and amended condition of abstract moral science.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the underlying principles that govern human society, seeking to establish a universal foundation for political science across all nations. Its focus is on developing abstract principles through metaphysics and then applying them to reality. The author argues that this approach has the potential to yield a true science of politics, one that can be demonstrated to be correct through logical reasoning. The book attempts to establish a clear distinction between politics and political economy, with the former focusing on the nature of rights and justice and the latter on the nature of benefits and utility. The author argues that these are distinct but complementary disciplines and that a sound political system requires both. The book concludes with the hope that the development of a true science of politics will provide a solid foundation for the improvement of human society. True political change, the author argues, must be based on principles that are not only correct but also universal, principles that apply to all humans at all times. The author believes that the insights presented in this book can contribute to this essential goal. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334953064_0
