  • Eugenics and Socialist Thought in the Progressive Era: the Case of James Medbery Mackaye
    Journal of the History of Economic Thought EUGENICS AND SOCIALIST THOUGHT IN THE PROGRESSIVE ERA: THE CASE OF JAMES MEDBERY MACKAYE BY LUCA Fiorito AND TIZiana FORESTI The aim of this essay is to assess James Medbery MacKaye’s contribution to socialist thought during the Progressive Era. Largely forgotten today, MacKaye proposed a special version of socialism, which he called “Pantocracy,” based on a peculiar blend of utilitarian and eugenic assumptions. Specifically, MacKaye held that biological fitness mapped to the capacity for happiness—biologically superior individuals possess a greater capacity for happiness—and saw the eugenic breeding of “a being or race of beings capable in the first place of happiness” as a possibility open by the advent of Pantocracy. Incidentally, this essay provides further evidence that the influence of eugenic and racialist beliefs upon the American Progressive Era political economy was so deep-rooted and pervasive that it did cut across traditional ideological boundaries. “The Economy of Happiness,” working through the rigid precision of scientific method, is a philosophy which finds its ultimate justification in the joy of men and the laughter of a child. —Walter Lippmann, “All the MacKayes” I. INTRODUCTION: THE ISSUE The influence of eugenicist and racialist beliefs upon the American Progressive Era political economy was so deep-rooted and pervasive that it cut across traditional ideo- logical boundaries. As Thomas C. Leonard (2016, p. xiii) recently pointed out, not only progressives such as Richard T. Ely, John R. Commons, and Edward A. Ross, but “conservatives and socialists also drank deeply from the seemingly bottomless Luca Fiorito, Università degli Studi di Palermo; Tiziana Foresti, Bocconi University.

  • Sperling, John TITLE ECON 12: Student Materials. Unit I. Test
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 053 048 SO 001 700 AUTHOR Wiggins, Suzanne; Sperling, John ., . TITLE ECON 12: Student Materials. Unit I. Test Edition. INSTITUTION San Jose State Coll., Calif. PUB DATE 68 NOTE 334p. EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$13.16 DESCRIPTORS *Concept Teaching, Criterion Referenced Tests, *Economic Education, Experimental Curriculum, Grade 12, Inquiry Training, Instructional Materials, Learning Activities, *Problem Solving, *Programed Materials, Resource Units, Secondary Grades, Social Studies Units, Textbooks, Workbooks IDENTIFIERS *ECON 12 ABSTRACT This revision and expansion of the 1966 edition of the student materials, ED 040 101, is comprised of student workbook and text for Unit I. As an introduction to economics, it is designed to provide a frame of reference for the study of contemporary economic problems. It is a careful study of such concepts as scarcity, wants, resources, and decision-making with respect to the various economic activities found in all economies, and how these activities are organized into economic systems. Economic concepts and their relationships to the other social sciences are stressed incorporating the basic strategy of problem-solving through inquiry. The seven chapter text includes general discussions by the principal author; twenty-eight readings, including some historical resources, others from foreign countries, and several by the author, are keyed to most, of the chapters. The programmed student workbook contains seven programs, criterion tests, and twelve exercises. An extensive use of graphs is continued in the revision, but the unit test is not repeated. Unit II is described in SO 001 701. Other available related documents are: 1) the test editions of the Teacher's Materials for both Unit I and Unit II, ED 040 100; and, 2) the final report of the curriculum development project, ED 028 093.

Jameson Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology June 2017 Title: Radical Conservation and the Politics of Planning: A Historical Study, 1917-1945 This thesis is a historical, sociological case-study of the movement for public control and land-use planning prior to WWII. The impetus for this movement came from a radicalized faction of the forestry profession. Radicalism in forestry centered around a group of professional foresters who were followers of Gifford Pinchot, the nation’s Chief Forester from 1898-1910. Pinchot commenced the movement for public control over cutting on private forestlands in in the nineteen-teens.
