Available Information. The American Social Hygiene Association, whose address is 105 West Fortieth Street, New York City, is the most potent factor in our country for the dissemination of information on the social questions. The following announcement, therefore, may be of value to those who desire further knowledge: “Among the means by which the American SociaF Hygiene Association hopes to be of special service to all local societies pro moting social hygiene work, the directors believe that the refer ence library maintained at the national office is not the least important. In addition to books received by purchase, or through the courtesy of publishers, authors, or donors, the library will maintain an index of available books, monographs, magazine articles, stories, etc., within the field of the Association’s work. A series of traveling libraries on the moral, social, economic, med ical and educational phases of the work is being planned for co operation with the local libraries and other agencies throughout the United States. “The librarian will be glad to correspond with persons requir ing special references and data. The more important new books and articles on social hygiene will be available for reference by visitors and matter important for special purposes will be found briefly abstracted for more ready reading. The librarian will pre pare book reviews, which will be sent to members and to others placed on the mailing lists. “The library begins its work with 564 volumes and approxi mately 1500 pamphlets in English, German, French, and other languages. It is hoped that a special library fund may soon be obtained to insure the rapid development of this important part of the Association’s work. A questionnaire has been sent to all libraries in the United States comprising more than five thousand volumes, requesting lists of books catalogued under social hygiene subjects and inviting correspondence. “The library is open daily except Sundays and holidays from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m., and is at the service of those who are interested in social hygiene.”","PeriodicalId":72767,"journal":{"name":"Daniel's Texas medical journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1914-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85328163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"Why Not","authors":"Edward Hall","doi":"10.1177/1474885115595805","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/1474885115595805","url":null,"abstract":"In 2009, Princeton University Press published a short book entitled Why Not Socialism? (hereafter WNS) by the late Canadian political philosopher G.A. Cohen. In it Cohen attempts to articulate a compelling moral argument in favour of socialism by asking his readers to imagine the best possible way of organising a camping trip. According to Cohen, on the best camping trip the resources the group use – pots, pans, fishing rods, etc. – would be under collective control and shared understandings will arise about who will fish, cook and wash up, etc. based on people’s enjoyment of such activities. This ensures that ‘there are no inequalities to which anyone could mount a principled objection’ (WNS: 4). This makes the trip uniquely enjoyable: each camper enjoys ‘a roughly similar opportunity to flourish, and also to relax, on condition that she contributes, appropriately to her capacity, to the flourishing and relaxing of others’ (WNS: 4–5). Two key socialist principles are realised on Cohen’s camping trip. The first of these, socialist equality of opportunity, ‘seeks to correct for all unchosen disadvantages, disadvantages that is, for which the agent cannot herself reasonably be held responsible, whether they be disadvantages that reflect social misfortune or disadvantages that reflect natural misfortune’ (WNS: 17–18). Thus when socialist equality of opportunity prevails ‘differences of outcome reflect nothing but difference of taste and choice, not differences in natural and social capacities and powers’ (WNS: 18). This principle, as many readers will know, is the central intuition behind the philosophical position known as ‘luck-egalitarianism’ with which Cohen is closely associated. The second, the community principle, ‘constrains the operation of the egalitarian principle by forbidding certain inequalities that the egalitarian principle permits’ (WNS: 12). It captures the fact that on the best possible camping trip ‘people care about, and, where necessary and possible, care for, one another, and, too, care that they care about one another’ (WNS: 34–35). Even if certain inequalities would be permitted by the first principle, the second ensures that inequality between the campers can never be too great because this would preclude them from empathising with each other in the most attractive way possible.","PeriodicalId":72767,"journal":{"name":"Daniel's Texas medical journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1914-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83760976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
