  • What's in a Name

    Henry Pratt FairchildARTICLEMonthly Review1956

    "What's in a name?" Juliet's wistful query presupposed a negative answer—Nothing. That supposition may be valid for roses and lovers—it certainly is not valid for many other important objects of human interest. Names may become very powerful and influential. A huge public utility does not call itself "Consolidated Edison" just out of reverence for the memory of a great inventor.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where m…

  • The Illusion of Freedom, Part II

    Henry Pratt FairchildARTICLEMonthly Review1954

    Coming back to our main theme, just because natural laws are immutable, eternal, and universal, men have become accustomed to being controlled by them, and by and large do not resent them, indeed, are practically unconscious of the limitations upon freedom which they impose. It is the man-made laws that seem to tie us down and arouse our resistance and desire for change.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most rece…

  • The Illusion of Freedom, Part I

    Henry Pratt FairchildARTICLEMonthly Review1954

    No man is free. No man has ever been free. No man will ever be free. Though he take the wings of the morning and fly to the uttermost part of the earth he will find that he has only substituted new forms of restraint for the old ones—and probably more onerous ones.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review…

  • Soviet Civilization

    Corliss Lamont, Henry Pratt FairchildARTICLEThe Russian Review1953

  • In Defense of Malthus

    Henry Pratt FairchildARTICLEMonthly Review1952

    Dr. Harry Grundfest begins his article entitled "Malthusianism" in the December, 1951, Monthly Review with the statement: "Popularizers of 'scientific' Malthusian population doctrine are fortunate indeed that few of their readers trouble to read Malthus' own Essay." Dr. Grundfest is unfortunate in apparently not having read the Essay himself, at least not carefully enough to prevent his plunging into the pitfall that traps nine-tenths of the comm…

  • Why I Believe in Socialism

    Scott Nearing, Henry Pratt Fairchild et al.ARTICLEMonthly Review1949

    I became a convinced believer in socialism as the best way out for America and the world almost twenty years ago, about 1931 or 1932. Since that time the rise of fascism, the undoubted economic success of socialism in the Soviet Union, the coming of the Second World War, the defeat of international fascism and the post-war developments of 1945-49 in America, Europe, and Asia have all deepened and strengthened my socialist convictions.This article…

  • Free Enterprise and Full Employment

    Henry Pratt FairchildARTICLEAmerican Sociological Review1946

    IT IS inconceivable that any one should not want full employment, or at least should express his dislike openly. The wage earner wants it, because it means the maintenance of his standard of living. The man wants it, because it means the continuous operation of his productive unit. The general public wants it, because it means an unbroken and maximum flow of the goods and services upon which it depends for the maintenance of the good life. True, …
