Socialism Summed Up is a book written by Morris Hillquit in 1913. It is a comprehensive and concise overview of the principles, history, and goals of socialism. Hillquit, a prominent socialist leader and lawyer, presents a clear and accessible introduction to the philosophy of socialism, explaining how it differs from capitalism and other economic systems. He also discusses the history of socialism, from its origins in the 19th century to its rise as a political force in Europe and the United States. The book covers a wide range of topics related to socialism, including the role of the state in a socialist society, the relationship between labor and capital, and the importance of democracy and equality. Hillquit argues that socialism is not only a more just and equitable system than capitalism, but also more efficient and productive. Throughout the book, Hillquit addresses common criticisms of socialism and provides compelling responses to each one. He also discusses the challenges facing the socialist movement, including the opposition of powerful interests and the need for international cooperation. Overall, Socialism Summed Up is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about socialism and its potential to create a more just and equitable society. Hillquit's clear and persuasive writing style makes complex ideas accessible to readers of all backgrounds, making this book a timeless classic in the history of socialist literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
