Socialists are united far more by their shared opposition to anomic
individualism than by their commitment to any single interpretative
scheme or body of beliefs. However, the 42 texts by the 27
socialists represented in this collection show that, in spite of
the striking differences, there are certain crucial similarities
and points of convergence. These volumes show that in Britain, at
least in the years from 1825-1952, the democrats who called
themselves socialists tended to concentrate their discussion around
four common themes that served as the core of their common cause:
quest for community, the institution of equality, the
rehabilitation of the state, and transition by consent. The classic
texts contained in these ten volumes, which encompass the Ricardian
socialists, the Christian socialists, and the Fabian socialists,
seek to make human interaction and social responsibility the
centrepiece of economic debate from a variety of ideological
perspectives. These key contributions to British thought between
1825 and 1952 are still a source of stimulus to students of
political economy even as they have acquired the status of great
historical works.
