The Modern State In Relation To Society And The Individual (1891) - Paul Leroy-Beaulieu - Bog

The Modern State In Relation To Society And The Individual is a book written by French economist and sociologist, Leroy-Beaulieu, and originally published in 1891. The book explores the relationship between the modern state, society, and the individual, and examines the role of the state in shaping and regulating social and economic structures.Leroy-Beaulieu argues that the modern state has a crucial role to play in promoting social progress and individual liberty, but that it must do so without infringing on individual rights or stifling innovation and creativity. He suggests that the state should act as a facilitator and mediator, rather than an authoritarian force, and that it should work to create a balance between individual freedom and social responsibility.Throughout the book, Leroy-Beaulieu draws on a range of historical and contemporary examples to illustrate his arguments, and provides a detailed analysis of the social, economic, and political forces that shape modern society. He also explores the relationship between the state and various social institutions, such as the family, the church, and the market, and considers the impact of these institutions on individual freedom and social progress.Overall, The Modern State In Relation To Society And The Individual is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the role of the state in modern society, and offers a valuable perspective on the ongoing debate over the balance between individual rights and social responsibility.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
