Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Such societies may be called Acquisitive Societies, because their whole tendency and interest and preoccupation is to promote the acquisition of wealth. The appeal of this conception. has laid the whole modern world under its spell. .It is an invitation to men to use the powers. without inqu…iring whether there is any principle by which their exercise should be limited.' --R.H. Tawney, The Acquisitive Society (1920)The Acquisitive Society (1920), one of R.H. Tawney's most widely read books, is probably his most influential. In this book, he criticizes the selfish individualism of modern society and states that capitalism encourages acquisitiveness, which corrupts everyone, both rich and poor. Tawney describes how economic inequality and meaningless work are by-products of capitalism, something which is as relevant and thought provoking as it was a hundred years ago.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - '.The title, 'the Guardians of the Gate', is borrowed from a phrase applied to the Serbs. in particular by [British Prime Minister] Mr. Lloyd George in his speech on August 8, 1917. It is a summary of the services which the Serbs have always done their best to render to Christendom: for their… country is indeed, one of the gateways of civilized Europe.'--R.G.D. Laffan, Preface, The Guardians of the Gate, 1918The Guardians of the Gate--A Story of the Serbs (1918) was originally a series of lectures on Serbian history given by the British historian R.G.D. LAFFAN (1887-1972) to the British Army Service Corps, that was attached to the Serbian Army during World War I.In its 1918 review, The American Historical Review described this book as 'excellent and it evidences a deep sympathy and affection for the Serbian people. But it everywhere shows a scholarly desire to discover the views of Serbia's enemies and a fine restraint from condemning anything except on what amounts to practically positive proof. It is not a polemic, not even a plea for the Serbian cause. It was written to give enlightenment to English-speaking peoples about a race of whom they had hitherto heard only from unfriendly sources, from German and Magyar writers.'One hundred years after its publication, this book still offers indispensable reading for anyone interested in the history of the Serbs and a better understanding of a country that is not always appreciated in the West.
