Post Industrialism is a book written by Arthur J. Penty, which explores the challenges and opportunities of the post-industrial era. The book argues that industrialization has led to a loss of traditional values and a decline in the quality of life. Penty proposes a return to a more agrarian and community-based society, where people are connected to the land and each other. He argues that this would not only improve the quality of life but also promote sustainability and social justice. The book covers a range of topics, including the history of industrialization, the impact of technology on society, and the role of religion and culture in shaping our values. It also explores alternative economic models, such as distributism, which emphasizes the importance of local ownership and control of resources. Overall, Post Industrialism is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a compelling vision for a more sustainable and equitable future.WE have seen that the Socialist ideal of reconstructing society on some co-operative or communal basis had its origin in the fact that the unrestricted use of machinery was found to be incompatible with a competitive society; that the problems growing out of machine production found a central position in Socialist theory from the days of Owen to Marx, but were lost sight of and forgotten by the Fabians.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
