According to the author, Harriet Martineau “found the workings
of capitalism at odds with the professed moral principles of the
people of the United States.”
She pointed out “the faults with the free enterprise system in
which the workers were exploited and impoverished while
business owners became wealthy”
The belief that “all are created equal was inconsistent with
the lack of women’s rights”
Do you agree with Spencer’s perspective on the survival
of the fittest? Do you think Darwin’s ideas about natural
selection be applied in the field of social studies?
