Bag om Sociology For The South

Sociology For The South: Or The Failure Of Free Society is a book written by George Fitzhugh in 1854. The book is a critique of free society and an argument for the superiority of the Southern slave system. Fitzhugh argues that the Southern system of slavery is more humane, efficient, and just than the Northern system of wage labor. He believes that the institution of slavery is necessary to maintain social order and prevent the chaos and anarchy that he sees in free societies. Fitzhugh also critiques the individualism and materialism of free society, arguing that it leads to selfishness and social decay. The book is a controversial and provocative work that reflects the attitudes and beliefs of many Southern intellectuals in the antebellum period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
