Jane Addams On Autonomy And Responsibility, Marilyn Fischer

Philosophy Faculty Publications

Hull House was founded explicitly as a pragmatist test for her ideas on ethics and social change (Lagemann 1994, 77).

Verifying philosophical ideas rests on two methodological prerequisites: concrete experience and sympathetic understanding.

In addressing social problems, Hull House residents first gathered statistics …
