- An Examination Into The Respective Rights Of Intellectual Aristocracy And Social Democracy (1909)

Bag om Anti-Pragmatism

""Anti-Pragmatism: An Examination Into The Respective Rights Of Intellectual Aristocracy And Social Democracy"" is a book written by Albert Schinz in 1909. The book explores the conflict between the intellectual aristocracy and social democracy, and challenges the idea of pragmatism as a solution to this conflict. Schinz argues that intellectual aristocracy has the right to govern society, based on their superior knowledge and expertise, and that social democracy is a threat to this intellectual authority. He critiques the pragmatist belief that solutions to social problems should be based on practicality and effectiveness, rather than on intellectual merit. Schinz's work is a critique of the progressive movement of the early 20th century, which sought to promote social reform through practical solutions and democratic participation. The book is a significant contribution to the philosophical debates of the time, and remains relevant today in discussions of the role of expertise and intellectual authority in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
