Summary "Twentieth Century Socialism: What It Is Not; What It Is: How It May Come" by Edmond Kelly is a political treatise written in the early 20th century. This work aims to clarify the principles of Socialism, distinguishing it from related ideologies like Anarchism and Communism while providing a practical framework for its implementation. The text explores the evolution of economic systems and Kelly's arguments for socialism as a necessary progression in human society, addressing both its moral and practical aspects. The opening of the work begins with an introduction that emphasizes the need for a clear understanding of Socialism. Kelly reflects on the psychological barriers that individuals face, shaped by their vested interests and misunderstandings, which cloud their perception of socialism. He outlines the intellectual journey that led him to embrace socialism, advocating for a society where cooperation replaces competition to minimize suffering and inequality. The introduction establishes a foundation for further discussion on what socialism genuinely entails and how it can be achieved, framing it as an evolution rather than a mere reaction against capitalism.
