Government Intervention into Voluntary Social Welfare: A Comparative, International Study of the Changing Policy and Structure of Thirty-Six Agencies Operated by the Little Sisters of the Assumption in England, Ireland, France and the United States From 1966-1967
Abstract
A century ago, John Stuart Mill made this provocative statement relevant to all times because of its profond comprehension of societal forces and human response patterns. "Great economic and social forces," he states, "flow like a tide over half-conscious people. The wise are those who foresee the coming events and seek to shape their institutions and mold the thinking of the people in accordance with the most constructive change. The unwise are those who add nothing constructive to the process because of ignorance on the one hand or ignorant opposition on the other."
