Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy and Liberty, Vol. 1 Other influences than pure democracy have no doubt contributed to these things, but no competent judge will deny that the connection is real and close, nor can it be doubted that they have greatly increased through out Europe the distrust of parliamentary institutions. On the other side of the Atlantic Brazil, which during the period of its empire was a model of financial sol vency and integrity, has passed, as was predicted in this work, and without the pressure of any foreign war, into the ranks of defaulting States.

And it has seemed to me that perhaps some of my countrymen, too, might be glad to consider, in this broadly general way, those national ideals which we have come to feel most indisputably our own, most surely and ineradicably native.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liberty and Democracy and Other Essays in War-Time But while a programme of reconstruction is yet to make, it may be worth a word here to define the line which the author's thinking repeatedly brings him to believe such te construction must follow. This is the educa tional, not in any narrow scholastic way, but broadly, touching the whole life of the citizen and the whole endeavour of the state. Democracy can only flourish where the citi zens are both intelligent and alert, intelligent as to the purposes of their society and alert as to the means of attaining these: unceasing vigilance is the preserver of freedom, but this must be accompanied by a no less unceasing consideration of the ends of human life if the liberty is to be worth preserving. He who would duly enquire about the best form of the state ought first to determine which is the most eligible life. Aristotle's aphorism is the core of political wisdom; and its applied meaning can only be that the citizen who is a true warden of his rights must be an athlete of the mind, forever trained and in training. The problem of due training is the problem of political self-preservation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy and Liberty, Vol. 2 There is one other subject connected with religious liberty that is likely to occupy a large share in the attention Of the democracies of the future. It is the position and the aggressive policy Of the Catholic Church. Of all the judg ments Of the great thinkers Of the eighteenth century, none have been more signally falsified than those which they formed of the future Of the Catholic Church. With scarcely an exception, they believed that its sacerdotal, superstitious, intolerant, and ultramontane elements were silently fading away that it was taking more and more the character Of a purely moralising influence; and that all danger Of antago nism between it and the civil power had passed for ever. The delusion lasted for several years after the French Revolution, and it may be very clearly traced in the speeches and writings Of the chief advocates Of Catholic Emancipation. Many Of them lived to acknowledge their mistake. There is a characteristically cynical saying attributed to Lord Melbourne, that on that question all the d d fools in England predicted one set Of things, and all the sensible men in England another set, and that the d d fools proved perfectly right, and the sensible men perfectly wrong.' I have been told on excellent authority, that Macaulay once expressed in more decorous language a very similar view. I do not mean to take the white sheet, ' he is te ported to have said, ' for I acted honestly and conscientiously.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Influences of Democracy: On Liberty, Property, and the Happiness of Society, Considered by an American, Formerly Member of Congress, to Which Is Prefixed, an Introduction The publication of a foreign work implies a high estimate of its value in the Editor. Its merits belong exclusively to the Author; to the Editor belongs merely the credit of sending forth a well-timed publication, and of having formed, not only a high, but a correct estimate of its value. As he is not blinded by any parental partialities, he is, if he err in judgment, fairly chargeable with the blame due to his mistake. On me, therefore, rest the blame of want of judgment, if any Senator shall deign to peruse these pages, and not lay them down with nearly the same feeling as that with which a mariner folds up his chart - of being better able to steer the vessel of the State in safety, amid the rocks and whirlpools which always disturb the current of Liberty.

Book excerpt: "[Book title] covers the constitutional conventions convened in New York, Massachusetts, and Virginia in the 1820s to address fundamental policy issues, such as suffrage, legislative apportionment and representation, governmental structures, and freedom of religion. The clash between democracy, liberty, and property is conspicuous in the debates reprinted here. These particular state conventions are significant for their influence over neighboring states' constitutions and for their forceful debates among such leading statesmen as John Adams, James Madison, James Monroe, and John Marshall."--Jacket.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Modern Liberty One Of the most characteristic features of modern systems of government is the importance attached to individual liberty. It is a fascinating as well as an important undertaking to trace the gradual evolution of modern liberty. In the despotisms of the Orient personal liberty was entirely unknown, the life, actions, and property of the individual being completely at the mercy Of the ruler.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy and Liberty, Vol. 1 I have availed myself of the opportunity which the appearance of a Cabinet Edition gives to revise carefully this book, correcting such inaccuracies as I have been able to discover and, without attempting to re-write any portion of it, introducing into the text or notes a few lines relating to controversies which were pending at the time of its original publication and mentioning salient facts which have since occurred and which had a direct and important bearing on the subjects I have treated. The task of following in detail the later legislation on those subjects in the many different legislatures of the world must be left to other writers, but it is not, I think, inappropriate to devote a few pages to examining how far the experience of the last three years has confirmed or disproved the general principles I have laid down. In some of its most melancholy predictions this work has, I fear, been but too well confirmed. A great portion of it is devoted to describing the declining respect for parliamentary government and the great difficulty of reconciling this form of government with extreme democracy.
