''Political Progress Not Necessarily Democratic: Or Relative Equality The True Foundation Of Liberty'' is a book written by James Lorimer and published in 1857. The book argues that political progress does not necessarily lead to democracy and that true liberty is based on relative equality. Lorimer argues that equality should not be understood as absolute, but rather as relative to the needs and circumstances of society. He also argues that democracy can lead to tyranny if it is not balanced by other values such as individual rights and limited government. The book is a critique of the prevailing democratic ideology of the time and offers an alternative perspective on the relationship between political progress, democracy, and liberty.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
