Philosophy & Ethics, Russian Literature, Sociology
Translated by Isabel Florence Hapgood
The Census in Moscow is a sociological essay by Leo Tolstoy, written in the late 19th century. It critiques the census process in Moscow, arguing for a compassionate approach to data collection that emphasizes human connection and social responsibility. Tolstoy highlights the moral obligations of those conducting the census to engage with the impoverished, advocating for genuine altruism over mere statistical analysis. This work serves as a call to action for society to address poverty and inequality through meaningful interactions.
