THE DATA OF ETHICS
Herbert Spencer
With a new introduction by Jonathan H. Turner
In this amazingly prophetic work, done late in his career, Herbert Spencer offers an
approach to ethics that anticipates developments throughout the twentieth century.
He moves away from the twin evils of ethical doctrines bequeathed to us by an ancient
past that are simply no longer feasible, but also avoids modern standards of ethical
conduct that are simply impossible to attain. By association with rules that cannot be
obeyed, Spencer writes, rules that can be obeyed lose their authority.
The volume opens with three chapters on conduct: its evolution, good and bad, and
ways of judgment. This is followed by a series of chapters that examine ethics from a
variety of scientific perspectives: physics, biology, psychology, and sociology. The work
then moves on to specific issues of deep human concern: the relativity of pleasures
and pain, egoism versus altruism in explaining actions, and trial and compromise in
decision-making about ethical concerns.
Spencer s work anticipates the movement toward pragmatic, naturalistic, and even
positivist
approaches to ethics. He emphasizes that a relativist approach, while in
keeping with the spirit of the industrial age, also poses a variety of problems that admit
only empirical solutions. He understands that his critical stance on absolutism should
not blind researchers to the ideals assumed by the ancients that assist people in their
everyday living. In short, this is a remarkable work, entirely modern, and yet containing
a sharp evaluation of how ethical data serve to enhance ethical conduct.
About the Authors
Herbert Spencer
(1820-1903)
was an English philosopher, political theorist, sociologi¬
cal theorist, author, and editor. He served in the later capacity for the Economist from
1843
to
1853.
He is perhaps best known for applying evolutionary theory to social
development and coined the term survival of the fittest. His best known works are
Man versus the State and the multi-volume System of Synthetic Philosophy.
Jonathan H. Turner is distinguished professor of sociology at the University of Cali¬
fornia, Riverside. He has been visiting professor at numerous universities around the
