The Moral Basis of Democracy: Sunday Morning Talks to Students and Graduates is a book written by Arthur Twining Hadley. The book is a collection of lectures delivered by the author on Sunday mornings to students and graduates at Yale University. The author argues that democracy is not only a political system but also a moral system that is based on certain principles and values. He explores the moral foundations of democracy, including the importance of individual rights, the rule of law, and the need for civic engagement. The book also discusses the challenges that democracy faces, such as corruption, inequality, and the influence of money in politics. The author offers solutions to these challenges and encourages readers to become active citizens who are committed to upholding the moral principles of democracy. Overall, The Moral Basis of Democracy is a thought-provoking and insightful book that provides a compelling argument for the importance of morality in democratic societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
