""Socialism and American Ideals"" is a book written by William Starr Myers and published in 1919. The book explores the relationship between socialism and American ideals, and aims to answer the question of whether or not socialism is compatible with the values of American democracy. Myers begins by providing a historical overview of socialism and its development in Europe and America. He then examines the various forms of socialism, including Marxist socialism, Christian socialism, and syndicalism. Myers also discusses the role of socialism in American politics and the challenges that socialists faced in gaining mainstream acceptance.Throughout the book, Myers argues that socialism and American ideals are not necessarily incompatible. He suggests that many socialist ideas, such as the belief in equality and social justice, are actually in line with American values. However, he also acknowledges that there are significant differences between the two ideologies, particularly in terms of individualism and the role of the state.Overall, ""Socialism and American Ideals"" is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between socialism and American democracy. It offers insights into the history of socialism, the challenges faced by socialists in America, and the potential for socialist ideas to align with American values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
