Popular Progress: The Cause Of Agricultural And Industrial Depression, And The Remedy (1898) is a book written by Thomas Donohue that explores the causes of agricultural and industrial depression in the late 19th century and proposes solutions to alleviate these issues. The book argues that the root cause of the depression is the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few, and the resulting lack of purchasing power among the masses. Donohue suggests that this can be remedied through the implementation of policies that promote economic democracy, such as the redistribution of wealth and the establishment of worker cooperatives. The book also discusses the role of technology in exacerbating the depression, and proposes ways to harness it for the benefit of all. Overall, Popular Progress is a thought-provoking analysis of the economic challenges facing society at the turn of the century, and offers a compelling vision for a more just and equitable future.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.
