Jane Addams examines the rapid social and economic transformations and the need to reevaluate traditional ethical frameworks. She proposes that individualistic notions of morality—while important on a personal level—prove insufficient in addressing complex social problems created by industrialization, urbanization, and mass immigration. She suggests that these large-scale shifts give rise to a new set of ethical challenges, demanding a transition from a focus on individual virtue to a broader understanding of social responsibility.

Description

In Democracy and Social Ethics, Jane Addams examines the rapid social and economic transformations and the need to reevaluate traditional ethical frameworks. She proposes that individualistic notions of morality—while important on a personal level—prove insufficient in addressing complex social problems created by industrialization, urbanization, and mass immigration. She suggests that these large-scale shifts give rise to a new set of ethical challenges, demanding a transition from a focus on individual virtue to a broader understanding of social responsibility.

Addams contends that achieving meaningful progress in areas like poverty, inequality, and social justice requires recognizing the profound influence of social structures and economic systems on individual lives. Rather than attributing hardship solely to personal failings, she calls for a more empathetic approach, which acknowledges the factors that limit opportunity and perpetuate disadvantage. Addams envisions social ethics grounded in democratic ideals, which views individual well-being as inseparable from the well-being of the community as a whole.
