Is civilization a disease?
No full textStanton Coit's "Is Civilization a Disease?" addresses the prevalent skepticism regarding the nature of civilization, questioning whether its essential feature—trade—suffers from a moral ailment caused by its reduction to selfishness and the manipulation of production for individual gain. The author argues that the cure for this disease is not a "Return to Nature," as this would regress humanity to a primitive, pre-civilized animal selfishness. Coit instead calls for a "democratic process" where commerce and social life are transformed towards a centralized, healthy ideal of "patriotism" that fosters both individual well-being and collective goodwill. This is to be achieved by establishing a sound economic order governed by "socialized wealth and applied science and politics," predicated on moral unity.Stanton Coit'in "Is Civilization a Disease?" (Medeniyet Bir Hastalık mıdır?) başlıklı eseri, medeniyetin doğası hakkındaki yaygın şüpheciliği ele almakta ve ticaretin medeniyetin temel bir özelliği olarak ahlaki bir hastalıktan muzdarip olup olmadığını sorgulamaktadır; bu hastalık, ticaretin bencilliğe ve bireysel çıkar için üretimin manipülasyonuna indirgenmesiyle ortaya çıkar. Yazar, bu hastalığın çaresinin "Doğaya Dönüş" olmadığını, zira bu durumun insanlığı medeniyetten önceki ilkel bir hayvani bencilliğe geri götüreceğini savunur. Coit, bunun yerine, ticaret ve toplumsal yaşamın, hem bireysel refahı hem de kolektif iyi niyeti besleyen, merkezileşmiş, sağlıklı bir "yurtseverlik" idealine doğru dönüştürülmesi gereken bir "demokratik süreç" çağrısında bulunur. Bu, "toplumsallaşmış zenginlik ve uygulamalı bilim ve politika" ile yönetilen, ahlaki birliğe dayalı sağlıklı bir ekonomik düzenin kurulmasıyla gerçekleşebilir
