	The Project Gutenberg eBook of Civics: As Applied Sociology, by Patrick Geddes.
		Thus now the question of the practical civics, that is, of the applied sociology, of each individual, each body or interests may be broadly defined; it is to emphasise his particular historic type, his social formation and influence in the civic whole, if not indeed to dominate this as far as may be.
		J.H. If sociology is ever to vindicate itself as an art, it must be able to analyse and explain the present, and to some extent at least to cast the horoscope of the future.
		He defines applied sociology as the application of social survey to social science, when social ratiocination or social philosophy are needed before one can be said to have gauged the extent of the influence which this comprehensive science may have in our actual practice or on our Budget of the future.

	The Place Of Theory In Applied Sociology: A Reflection
		Much of the tension that currently exists between applied and academic orientations in sociology can be explained in terms of political, professional, and even interpersonal issues and concerns.
		Without delving too deeply into the critique of this type of theoretical sociology, I will just remind you (if such a reminder is necessary) that intention, planning, and willful acts always enter into change in human systems in ways that cannot be attributed to their organic counterparts.
		Even more important, the argument against a (democratically) committed sociology, and in support of the development of apolitical theory, is seriously discontinuous with the foundations as well as the authentic intellectual breakthroughs of the discipline.
