Instead Of A Blog - Herbert Spencer And Social Darwinism
Wirkman Virkkala on herbert spencer s social philosophy.
http://www.insteadofablog.com/2004.07.20.shtml

Extractions: Posted July 20, 2004 Wirkman Virkkala I participate in a small email discussion group, Social-Darwinism-L . The main page of this group describes the doctrine as follows: Social Darwinism is a belief, popular in the late Victorian era in England, America, and elsewhere, which states that the strongest or fittest should survive and flourish in society, while the weak and unfit should be allowed to die. The theory was chiefly expounded by Herbert Spencer, whose ethical philosophies always held an elitist view and received a boost from the application of Darwinian ideas such as adaptation and natural selection. If this is the accepted definition, then I am not a Social Darwinist. But then, arguably, neither was Herbert Spencer. First, there's elitism and then there's elitism. Spencer believed that one can indeed judge people on moral grounds, and on physical grounds, and on cultural grounds, and that these judgments need not be arbitrary or biased. He himself despised biases in the social sciences, and his popular book

http://www.nysun.com/article/59076

Extractions: July 25, 2007 A D V E R T I S E M E N T A D V E R T I S E M E N T Think you know Herbert Spencer? Look him up in, say, "The Oxford Companion to Philosophy," and besides supplying his dates (18201903), the entry calls him an "English evolutionist, father of sociology, and self-appointed philosopher." Self-appointed, I suppose, because Spencer claimed he read few books, especially not those he disagreed with, explaining that they gave him a headache. A classic Victorian eccentric, he is probably best known for coining the phrase "survival of the fittest," a notion that greatly appealed to captains of industry such as Andrew Carnegie. Mark Francis, in his iconoclastic, "Herbert Spencer and the Invention of Modern Life" (Cornell University Press, 434 pages, $45), argues that the great man is not at all what he has been represented to be. The clinching scene of this intellectual biography is Spencer's appearance at Delmonico's, the famous New York City restaurant, where, on November 9, 1882, 200 of his admirers gathered to honor Spencer with a farewell banquet capping off his only American tour. Spencer told his American acolytes there was too much emphasis on the "gospel of work" a direct blow to Carnegie and his ilk. Now it was time, he said, to emphasize the "gospel of relaxation."

This adds several newly transcribed essays focusing on the meaning of socialism, arguing that Anarchistic Socialism is the most consistent form of socialism and arguing against the common assumption that socialism is synonymous with State monopoly over production. The essays newly available are: Socialism: What It Is , which argues that the word Socialism should be proudly claimed, or reclaimed, by Anarchists, in spite of the appropriation of the word by State Socialists. Tucker argues that Anarchistic Socialism is the most consistent form of socialism. Armies That Overlap , in which Tucker claims (against the claims of the paper Twentieth Century ) that Anarchism and Socialism, properly defined, are neither coextensive nor exclusive; they are two overlapping struggles.

http://joelschlosberg.blogspot.com/2005/08/herbert-spencers-essays-about.html

Extractions: skip to main skip to sidebar Following closely Friedrich Froebel's autobiography , another pioneering work in education has been posted to Project Gutenberg , after being prepared by Distributed Proofreaders (see my earlier post on DP), and again I'm credited in the text for my work on it. The book in question is the collection Essays on Education and Kindred Subjects by Herbert Spencer, a leading 19th century scientist whose radical social and political theories influenced the likes of Alexander Berkman, Voltairine de Cleyre, Henry George, Emma Goldman, and Benjamin Tucker. The group of essays "What Knowledge is of Most Worth?", "Intellectual Education", "Moral Education", and "Physical Education" were originally written in the 1850s and collected in book form in 1861. This edition adds five additional essays, as well as an excellent 1911 introduction by Charles W. Eliot. Known for creating the "Five Foot Shelf" collection of selected books, Eliot summarizes the essays in a concise space and describes the extent to which Spencer's reforms were put into practice in the intervening time.

http://educ.southern.edu/tour/who/pioneers/spencer.html

Extractions: died Dec. 8, 1903, Brighton, Sussex English sociologist and philosopher, an early advocate of the theory of evolution, who achieved an influential synthesis of knowledge, advocating the preeminence of the individual over society and of science over religion. His magnum opus was The Synthetic Philosophy, a comprehensive work completed in 1896 and containing volumes on the principles of biology, psychology, morality, and sociology. Spencer's father, William George Spencer, was a schoolmaster, and his parents' dissenting religious convictions inspired in him a nonconformity that continued active even after he had abandoned the Christian faith. Spencer declined an offer from his uncle, the Rev. Thomas Spencer, to send him to Cambridge, and in consequence his higher education was largely the result of his own reading, which was chiefly in the natural sciences. He was, for a few months, a schoolteacher and from 1837 to 1841 a railway civil engineer.
