    Extractions: Biografías Spencer, Herbert Ilustración pendiente ilósofo, psicólogo y sociólogo británico (1820-1903), nacido en Derby, fundador de la filosofía evolucionista en Gran Bretaña y uno de los más ilustres positivistas de su país. Ingeniero de ferrocarriles y de formación autodidacta, se interesó tanto por la ciencia como por las letras. En el año 1848 asumió la dirección de la revista The Economist , órgano del liberalismo radical de la época. Desde el punto de vista sociológico cabe considerarle como primer autor que utilizó de forma sistemática los conceptos de estructura y función . Por otra parte, concibió la sociología como un instrumento dinámico al servicio de la reforma social. Dedicó su vida a elaborar su sistema de filosofía evolucionista, en la que considera la evolución natural como clave de toda la realidad, a partir de cuya ley mecánico-materialista cabe explicar cualquier nivel progresivo: la materia, lo biológico, lo psíquico, lo social, etc. En sus lecturas conoció la teoría de la evolución expuesta a finales del siglo XVIII por el naturalista francés Jean Lamarck. Su teoría, hoy desacreditada, sostenía que los rasgos adquiridos de un organismo eran hereditarios. Las teorías de Lamarck sobre la evolución influyeron profundamente en la obra de Spencer.

    Extractions: A Victorian biologist and philosopher, Herbert Spencer was born April 27th, 1820, at the height of British industrialism . He was educated at home in mathematics, natural science, history and English, among some other languages. Spencer was sickly in his youth, all eight of his other siblings dying at a young age. His constitution remained weak throughout his life, and he would later suffer from nervous breakdowns which he never recovered from, and he wandered about London never in a complete state of good health. He suffered from chronic insomnia, could only work a few hours a day, and used fairly substantial amounts of opium. He experienced a strange sensation in his head which he called "the mischief", and was known for eccentricities like the wearing of ear-plugs to avoid over-excitement, especially when he could not hold his ground in an argument. He obtained a job as a civil engineer on the railways at sixteen and wrote during his spare time. This vocation of his took up ten years of his life, and imbued him with a healthy optimism for life and society. Spencer became the sub-editor of The Economist in 1848, an important financial weekly at the time for the upper-middle class. He interacted with famous people like Thomas Huxley and John Tyndall, among many other leading intellectuals of Victorian Britain. Spencer published numerous articles in the radical press of his time, like

Der am 27. April in Derby geborene spätere Philosoph war zunächst Ingenieur im englischen Eisenbahnwesen beschäftigt, bevor es ihn zur journalistischen Arbeit drängte und er sich autodidaktisch zu soziologischen und philosophischen Veröffentlichungen vorarbeitete. Spencer ist Entwicklungstheoretiker par excellence: Als Entwicklung ist vom physischen über das psychische bis hin zum sozialen und ethnischen Leben alles zu begreifen. Die Entwicklung selbst ist in ihrer Richtung bestimmbar: Sie geht von der Homogenität zur Heterogenität, vom Einfachen zum Komplexen, vom Unbestimmten zum Bestimmten voran.

    Extractions: English sociologist who was a follower of Charles Darwin and coined the phrase "survival of the fittest," as well as popularizing the term evolution. Spencer was also responsible for attempting to adapt Darwin's theories to human society, known as social Darwinism. Like Comte , Spencer ordered the sciences, also seeking to include sociology as a science.

    Extractions: When people hear the phrase "survival of the fittest" they are likely to think of the great biologist Charles Darwin. The phrase in fact appears to have been coined by a contemporary of Darwin's, the philosopher Herbert Spencer. Spencer thought of evolution as involving much more than biology. For him, evolution pervaded the inorganic as well as the organic realm. His voluminous work also treated "superorganic evolution" (which we today would term social evolution), and evolution of "superorganic products" (what we call cultural evolution). Much as cells combine to make up organisms, organisms themselves combine, in some species, to make up "superorganisms," or societies. The comparison of societies to organisms has roots in ancient Greece, but Spencer elaborated this idea in greater detail than anybody else before or since. He emphasized three developmental tendencies shared by societies and organisms: (1) growth in size, (2) increasing complexity of structure, and (3) differentiation of function. Generally speaking, larger life forms, unlike smaller ones, have several types of tissues and organs, each suited to perform its special function; similarly, larger societies, unlike smaller ones, have specialized arrangements for performing different functions. Examples include factories, stores, schools, and churches; less concrete arrangements such as economic and political systems; the occupational division of labor; and the division of society into rich and poor, powerful and powerless.

    Extractions: Herbert Spencer Dos ideas dominaron la vida de Herbert Spencer: la de la evolución, para la cual inventó el término «supervivencia de los más dotados», y la de la libertad personal. Sus contemporáneos lo describieron como terco, independiente e intelectualmente superambicioso. No obstante, Spencer siempre se mantuvo firme en sus convicciones. Era un hombre de poca pretensión; se negaba a asistir a funerales, se burlaba de los honores académicos y desdeñaba la pompa del gobierno. La obsesión de su vida fue explicar toda la naturaleza como un sistema materialista sincronizado. Nacido en Derby, Inglaterra, Herbert fue el único hijo que sobrevivió a la infancia. Su padre era un maestro, con unos planteamientos sociales y religiosos progresistas; su madre era una mujer tranquila y conformista. Spencer fue animado a seguir con su interés por la ciencia, particularmente por la historia natural, la fisica y la química, con exclusión de la historia y los clásicos. De modo que sus contemporáneos pensaron que estaba insuficientemente educado. Tenía dieciséis años cuando finalizó su escolarización formal. Volvió a casa y durante un tiempo fue ayudante de profesor. Más tarde se convirtió en ingeniero de construcción ferroviaria y durante este período intentó inventar cosas y publicó unos cuantos artículos técnicos. Del ferrocarril cambió su interés hacia la teoría política -siendo sus principales preocupaciones limitar las funciones del Estado y conseguir el sufragio universal y una total separación de la Iglesia y el Estado.
