Abstract

Excerpt from Conditions of National Success Not the centre of the universe, must on moral grounds be made the centre of any investigation into his position in that universe. Indeed, the idea Of society dominating the individual is SO Offensive to some people that the very term social organism arouses in them a strong antipathy. Societies exist because individuals have found them useful. Further more, since societies are thus a mere matter of individual arrangement it is advisable on scientific as well as on moral grounds that our attention should be concentrated upon the individual. Society and the state are supposed to be without meaning except in SO far as they help the individual and increase the fullness of individual life, and study of the individual is under these circumstances much better calculated to throw a light upon the nature of society than the study of society upon the nature of the individual.
