Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Government Any one who attempts to study a carpet loom, or even an ordinary steam engine, when at rest, will find its mechanism hard to under stand. He may examine the several parts; note their size and shape, and the materials of which they are made; but unless he watches them in motion he will not easily appreciate their hearing upon one another, or their func tions in the working of the machine. The same principle applies to the study of politics, for the real mechanism. Of a government can be understood only by examining it in action. It has, indeed, been far too common to study the constitutions of various countries statically, if I may use the term; and this has led to a.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nationality and Government: With Other War-Time Essays All the essays have been written since the outbreak of the war with one exception, that on Education, Social and National. I have included this partly because it seemed of sufficient intrinsic interest, and partly in order to indicate that my general attitude has not been arrived at under the stress of passing events, but that the war has on the whole confirmed rather than reversed opinions previously formed. On the other hand, I have deliberately refrained from reprinting an essay on Seven Months in America, written in 1912, because, although in some important respects events have borne it out, it did far less than justice to the fundamental unity and idealism of the American Commonwealth. I have also omitted, as unsuited to a book covering so wide a scope, several essays containing a more detailed treatment of some of the issues discussed here. One of them, a study of the problem of women in industry, has already been in part reprinted. Others may perhaps see the light in another form. In reprinting, as from my own pen, articles which have appeared in the Round Table, I take the opportunity of thanking the friends in collaboration with whom they were written. Now that the book as a whole is before me, I may add a few words of prefatory comment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experience the Test of Government: In Eighteen Essays The remarks which compose the following papers, were written without regard to system or style; and, as the objects presented themselves, in a situation favorable for dispassionate observation, and out of the vortex of party passions. They are not personal, therefore cannot give offence. They develope the actual operations of government generally, but more immediately point out the enormous abuses which flow from the exorbitant power vested in the executive. There are repetitions, but they will be found useful, as they are intended to place the same object in different points of view, and thereby render the facts more clear; and, what is of importance in discussion, familiar to the reader. They inculcate the principle, that it is necessary for the people, to keep alive the spirit of investigation - to have frequent recurrence to first principles; and thereby guard against that tendency so natural to the mind of man, of accumulating and perpetuating power; which commences by degrees, grows bulky and formidable in its progress, and if not timeously prevented in its effects, must end in subverting every free government, and terminate in a hideous and tyrannic aristocracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Philosophy of Government: Essays Until quite recent times, it would have been unprofitable, in the case of most nations, to inquire what the philosophy of government held by the people was, or what effect it had on the foreign relations of the nation, or on international relations generally. There were few nations in which the people were so enlightened and expressed themselves so fully that it was possible to distinguish and define the particular philosophy of government held by them; and even if it had been possible to do so, it would have been of little use to try to discover what effect this philosophy had on international relations, since the fact was that it had little or no effect. The people of each nation, ignorant of foreign affairs by reason of the difficulties of travel and communication, allowed the executive to control the foreign relations under the advice of a council in the selection of which they had no voice, and representing privileged classes of persons who used the power of the nation as means to accomplish such ends as they thought desirable. So long as this condition of things was general, the rights of nations occupied the attention of writers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the First Principles of Government This publication owes its rise to the Remarks I wrote on Dr. Brown's proposal for a code of education. Several persons who were pleased to this favourably of that performance, (in which I was led to mention the subject of civil and religious liberty) were desirous that I should treat of it more at large, and without any immediate view to the Doctor's work. It appeared to them, that some of the views I had given of this important, but difficult subject, were new, and showed it, in a clearer light than any in which they had feel it represented before; and they thought I had placed the foundation of some of the most valuable interests of mankind on a broader and firmer basis, than Mr. Locke, and others who had formerly written upon this subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Political Literary Essays: 1908-1913 I have to thank the editors of The Edinburgh and Quarterly Reviews, The Nineteenth Century and After., and The Spectator for allowing the republication of these essays, all of which appeared originally in their respective columns. No important alterations or additions have been made, but I should like to observe, as regards the first essay of the series - on "The Government of Subject Races" - that, although only six years have elapsed since it was written, events in India have moved rapidly during that short period. I adhere to the opinions expressed in that essay so far as they go, but it will be obvious to any one who has paid attention to Indian affairs that, if the subject had to be treated now, many very important issues, to which I have not alluded, would have to be imported into the discussion.

But that is not the author's way The book is not more satisfactory to the thinker than it is to the historian. It abounds in facts and illustrations drawn from the history of the dependencies both of modern European states and ancient monarchies and republics. Thus history is illuminated by thought, and thought sustained and controlled by history. In this way the author's study of the relations of a dominant and a dependent community becomes a political philosophy teaching by experience.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crisis, or Essays on the Usurpations of the Federal Government It cannot be too strongly impressed on the minds of our citizens, that the Government of the United States is a Government instituted for external, and not internal objects. This is the language of the Federalist, which is the best commentary on the Constitution, and': as such, its authority is acknowled ged in ou1° courts. The powers (says the Federalist) delegated by: the Constitution to the General? Government, are few and defined. T hose Which remain to the State° Governments are numerous and undefined. The former will be exer-r cised on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce, with which last the power of taxation Will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the States, extend to° all tlw objects Which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, -libe1°ties and properties, of the people, 'and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Changing Order: Essays on Government, Monopoly, and Education, Written During a Period of Readjustment These essays are bi-products of the writer's work as head of the United States Department of Justice during the four years from March 5, 1909, to March 5, 1913. That period was instinct with great problems. New conceptions of the relation of government to industrial organization were asserting themselves; new theories of government finding expression. The old order was changing. The epochal litigation between the government and great industrial combinations culminated in a series of decisions rendered in cases argued during that period in the Federal Supreme Court. By these decisions, the supremacy of law and government over monopoly was established. During the same period, the laws regulating common carriers in interstate commerce were radically amended, and these laws, and great questions arising out of them, also were brought to the Supreme Court for construction and exposition. The admission of the territories of New Mexico and Arizona into the Union gave rise to the discussion at the National Capitol of profound modifications in constitutional government as it had been theretofore understood and practised. These changes were being embodied in new constitutions of some of the western States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

One Of the characteristics most definitely associated with Nature and her Law was simplicity, and thus the theories of which I am speaking brought about (though less in England than in other countries) many valuable reforms Of private law, by simplifying it and clearing it from barbarous technicalities; They had, further, a large share in the parentage of Inter national Law, and they th'us helped to mitigate in some small degree the sanguinary quarrelsomeness which has accompanied the human race through the whole course Of its history. But, on the other hand, they in, my judgment unnerved the human intellect, and thus made it capable Of the extravagances into which it fell at the close Of the eighteenth century. And they certainly gave a false bias to all historical inquiry into the growth of society and the develop.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on the Institutions, Government, and Manners, of the States of Ancient Greece It will yield me much satisfaction, iftny'hnmhle endeavours shall in any degree contribute to facilitate or to promote the study of the authors of ancient Greece. Besides the tendency of their writings to refine the taste, and to foster senti ments of liberty and independence, no human productions are more calculated to amend the heart, and form it to the love and the practice of virtue. So amiable are the colours in which virtue is painted in their compositions; so capti vating are the examples of magnanimity, he roism, and generosity, to which they perpetually allude, that he who peruses them must insensibly imbibe somewhat of the exalted spirit which' they breathe, and through life will probably be regu lated by those principles of honour and integrity, which they had taught him to revere.
