Discours Sur L'Esprit Positif

Focusing on social reform and progress, Auguste Comte's work presents his philosophy of Positivism, advocating for sociology as a scientific discipline. He outlines the evolution of society through distinct stages governed by social laws, ultimately leading to a more advanced social order. Comte envisions a societal transformation supported by women and the working class, promoting a 'new moral power.' He proposes that humanism should supplant organized religion as the central focus of spiritual life, encapsulated in his motto of 'love, order, and progress.'
