Democracy and Social Ethics | Jane Addams

2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read

Jane Addams was a pioneer settlement worker, public philosopher, sociologist, author, and leader in woman suffrage and world peace. Beside presidents such as Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, she was the most prominent reformer of the Progressive Era and helped turn the nation to issues of concern to mothers, such as the needs of children, public health, and world peace. In 1931 she became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Democracy and Social Ethics | Jane Addams

so-so

There is a lot of wisdom in this small pamphlet but it is written in such a way as to seem academic in the extreme. That said, if someone were planning to work in a charitable field, I would highly recommend this as it is full of truths not found elsewhere and still quite relevant today. Jane Addams was not a believer in self-righteousness and she definitely put her money where her mouth was, so to speak.
