Moral Man And Immoral Society

""Moral Man and Immoral Society: A Study in Ethics and Politics"" is a classic work of political and ethical philosophy written by Reinhold Niebuhr. The book explores the idea that while individuals may be capable of moral behavior, societies and institutions often act immorally due to the inherent limitations of human nature and the pressures of power and self-interest. Niebuhr argues that the pursuit of justice and the common good requires a realistic understanding of these limitations and a willingness to work within them, rather than relying on idealized notions of human nature or utopian visions of society. The book has had a profound influence on political and social thought, and is widely regarded as a seminal work in the field of political philosophy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of ethics and politics, and the challenges of creating a just and equitable society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
