The instinct of workmanship, and the state of industrial arts
Veblen, Thorstein
Industrial arts -- History; Industries -- History; Technology -- History; Workmanship -- History
This book deals with the mighty conflict that raged throughout
the latter part of the last century for possession of the soul
of labor. It tells of the doctrines and deeds of Bakounin,
Netchayeff, Kropotkin, Ravachol, Henry, Most and Caserio.
It seeks the causes of such outbursts of rage as occurred
at the Haymarket in Chicago in 1886 and are now being much
discussed as Syndicalism, Haywoodism and Larkinism. It is a
dramatic, historical narrative in which terrorism, anarchism,
syndicalism and socialism are passionately voiced by their
greatest advocates as they battle over programs, tactics and
philosophies.

Two Important Interpretations of Present Movements
_Progressive Democracy_
BY HERBERT CROLY,
Author of “The Promise of American Life.”
_Cloth, 8vo, $2.00 net_
The object of the author in this book is three-fold. He has
in the first place analyzed the modern progressive democratic
movement in this country in order to separate its essential
from its non-essential ingredients to discover whether there
is any real issue between American progressivism and American
conservatism. In the second place he has tried to reconstruct
the historical background of progressivism to see what roots
or lack of roots it has in the American political and economic
tradition. And finally he has attempted to trace what we may
reasonably expect from the progressive movement, to show what
tools it must use in order to carry out its program and what
claims it has on the support of patriotic Americans. The work
seeks, therefore, to express for the first time a consistently
educational theory of democracy.
