Civilized Commercialism is a book written by Ernest Guy Stevens and published in 1917. The book discusses the concept of commercialism and its impact on society. Stevens argues that commercialism has become a dominant force in modern society, and that it has both positive and negative effects.The book begins by examining the origins of commercialism, tracing its roots back to the early days of trade and commerce. Stevens then goes on to explore the ways in which commercialism has evolved over time, and how it has come to dominate modern society.One of the key themes of the book is the tension between commercialism and civilization. Stevens argues that while commercialism has brought many benefits to society, it has also had a negative impact on traditional values and cultural norms. He suggests that commercialism has led to a loss of community and social cohesion, and has encouraged people to focus on material wealth rather than spiritual or moral values.Despite these concerns, Stevens also acknowledges the positive aspects of commercialism. He argues that it has brought about economic growth and prosperity, and has helped to improve living standards for many people.Overall, Civilized Commercialism is a thought-provoking exploration of the impact of commercialism on society. It offers a nuanced perspective on a complex and controversial topic, and is still relevant today as we continue to grapple with the challenges of balancing economic growth with social and cultural values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
