Bag om Social Harmonism

Social Harmonism: Human Rights Under Functional Government is a book written by Holmes Whittier Merton in 1914. The book explores the concept of social harmonism, which is a political theory that emphasizes the importance of functional government in ensuring the protection of human rights. Merton argues that a functional government, one that is efficient and effective in its operations, is necessary for the establishment of a just and equitable society. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the concept of social harmonism and its historical development. Merton traces the origins of social harmonism to the Enlightenment period and discusses how it has evolved over time. The second part of the book focuses on the role of government in promoting social harmonism. Merton argues that a functional government must be based on the principles of democracy, transparency, and accountability. He also discusses the importance of social welfare programs in promoting social harmonism and ensuring the protection of human rights. The final part of the book explores the practical applications of social harmonism. Merton discusses various examples of functional governments, including those in Switzerland, Germany, and the United States. He also discusses the challenges faced by governments in promoting social harmonism, such as the influence of special interest groups and the need for effective leadership. Overall, Social Harmonism: Human Rights Under Functional Government is a thought-provoking book that explores the relationship between government, human rights, and social harmony.
