| Summary | "Cours de philosophie positive" by Auguste Comte is a scientific publication written in the early 19th century. This work is part of Comte's broader philosophical system that aims to establish a new social philosophy grounded in scientific principles. It discusses the necessity of creating a social science akin to the natural sciences, focusing on the laws governing social phenomena and proposing a systematic approach to understanding human societies. At the start of this volume, Comte outlines the motivation and context for the development of his social philosophy. He emphasizes the need for a "physique sociale," or social physics, which examines the current state of society and its political necessities. The opening also critiques the existing political doctrines, arguing for the inadequacy of both theological and metaphysical approaches to real-world governance and social organization. Comte sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the scientific basis of social dynamics and the theoretical foundations that will guide the future of human society towards stability and progress.
