Excerpt from Social Physics: From the Positive Philosophy of Auguste Comte

The misfortune Of our actual state is that the two ideas are set up in radical Opposition to each other - the retrograde Spirit having directed all efforts-ih favor of Order, and anarchical doctrine hav ing arrogated to itself the charge Of Social Progress; and, in this state of things, the reproaches exchanged between the respective parties are only too well merited by both. In this vicious circle is society new confined and the only issue from it is by the undispu ted preponderance Of a doctrine equally progressive and hierarchi cal. The Observations which I have to make On this subject are applicable to all European societies, which have, in fact, all under gone a common disorganization, though in different degrees, and with various modifications, and which can not be separately reergam izod, however they may be for a time restrained; but I shall keep the French nation chiefly in view, not only because the revolution ary state has been most conspicuous in them, but because they are, in all important respects, better prepared, in Spite Of appearances, than any other, for a true reorganization.
