Originally published in 1915, this pioneer study has long
occupied an important place in the literature of sociology. An
exercise in the statistical correlation of the economic and social
institutions of the working classes of the early twentieth century,
the book is an important link between contemporary sociology, with
a focus on the problems of social development, and the classical
social liberalism on which L. T. Hobhouse left his mark. The
reissue includes the introduction written by Morris Ginsberg in the
1965 reprint, where he explains what he and his colleagues set out
to achieve and responds to the criticism faced by the study. This
is a classic work which is still of great value to sociologists and
anthropologists today.
L. T. Hobhouse (1864-1929) was fundamental to the New Liberal
movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. He
authored many important works in the fields of philosophy,
economics and social liberalism. First published in 1896, The
Theory of Knowledge considers the content and validity of
knowledge, and the conditions on which our understanding of
knowledge is based. It is a rich and important classic, which
remains of value to students and academics with an interest in
sociology, anthropology and the philosophy of logic.

Originally published in 1924, Professor Hobhouse's theories and
commentaries upon social development are an important milestone in
the history of sociological thought. Of particular interest to the
modern sociologist is his delineation of the struggle of the human
mind towards rationality in thought and action and his insistence
on the principle that in all social investigations it is necessary
to distinguish between questions of fact and questions of value.
Originally published in 1918, this enduring work by renowned
sociologist and Liberal politician Leonard Trelawny Hobhouse
encompasses a series of five key lectures, first delivered at the
London School of Economics in the autumn of 1917. Outlining
Hobhouse's theories on social investigation, freedom, law and the
will of the state, this edition revives an important work, which
has long been unavailable.

First published in 1922, this title written by L. T. Hobhouse,
British politician and one of the leading theorists of Social
Liberalism, is a seminal work concerning the social application of
ethical principles for the common good. The object of the book is
to show that social and political institutions are not ends in
themselves.
Hobhouse argues that the social ideal is to be sought not in the
faultless unchanging system of an institutional Utopia, but in the
love of a spiritual life with its unfailing system of harmonious
growth unconfined.

L. T. Hobhouse's Liberalism (1911), which has acquired the status
of a modern classic, is the most enduring statement of the
political principles which animated British liberal social
reformers in the early years of the twentieth century. While
written in a popular style, it is actually a theoretical work of
some subtlety, combining an historical analysis of the evolution of
liberal doctrine with a philosophical discussion of the character
of liberal belief, and proposing a reformulation of liberalism
which emphasises community, individual welfare rights, and an
activist state. This 1994 edition of the work includes a number of
his other writings from the same period, and will be of interest to
a broad range of students and scholars in politics and the history
of political thought.
