Download or read book The Evolution of Governments and Laws Exhibiting the Governmental Structures of Ancient and Modern States Their Growth and Decay and the Leading Principles of Their Laws Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Stephen Haley Allen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Governments and Laws, Exhibiting the Governmental Structures, of Ancient and Modern States, Their, Growth and Decay and the Leading, Principles of Their Laws, Vol. 1 The wide research and long study preceding and attending the preparation of this work have been prosecuted for the purpose of extracting from the recorded experiences of the various people of the earth, in the governments they have had and the laws under which they have lived, such broad and general principles as may be helpful in the work of framing constitutions and formulating laws. Neither government-building nor law-making is a science. That the moral law has some force and application is generally admitted, but that it may be violated, when deemed expedient to do so, is constantly asserted in practice. What is the moral law, and where may its precepts be found? Perhaps most men will answer, in the sacred books. But it may again be asked, what books are sacred? To this the Brahman will unhesitatingly answer, the Vedas and the code of Manu; the Buddhist, the Greater or the Lesser Vehicle, according to his sect; the Mohammedan, the Koran; the Jew, the Talmud; the Parsee, the Zend-Avesta; the Christian, the Bible, and so on through less widely accepted codes. While much of agreement can be found in all of them, there are direct antagonisms of the utmost importance. Mohammed taught war and commanded the propagation of the word by the sword. Christ forbade it, yet is recorded as having said, "I came not to send peace but a sword." Manu taught caste and inequality among men; Buddha equality. All the Asiatic codes, including the Christian, countenance slavery, which the moral sense of Europe and America now condemns. All nations resort to war; yet its immorality is its most apparent characteristic. Every normal person feels a capacity for determining the moral quality of the acts of himself and of others, yet varying capacity, education and surroundings lead to diverse judgments on many subjects.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conduct of the Government of France Towards the Republic of Geneva AT the time of the invafiou of Savoy by the French army, Geneva obtained a reinforcement of I200 men from thc'canton of cc. This precaution, {tipulated by treaties, and intended folely for pur pofcs of defence, had been carried into e 'eel in the preceding wars, and did not give the Ieafl umbrage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Governments and Laws, Vol. 2: Exhibiting the Governmental Structures, of Ancient and Modern States, Their, Growth and Decay and the Leading, Principles of Their Laws Own revenues and powers. Injustice was the purpose of the lawmaker and continued to be for centuries, till an intricate system of most unjust laws was evolved and taught as divinely ordained and devised for the common good. In England, though there have been times when temporal and spiritual power were opposed, in the main the kingly oppressors have found their best and strongest support in the clergy, who have diligently taught obedience and submission to king and church. Education is the sure foundation of any system, whether of government or religion. The people must be taught to obey and to believe. In England the increasing armies of the petty kings became schools, in which free men were taught obedi ence to the commands of leaders. The churches became schools, in which the divine right of rulers was inculcated and the duty of submission and contribution to the treasury of the king and of the church was constantly proclaimed. In course of time the rights of kings to oppress and of high church offi cials to enjoy great revenues came to be the only rights dis cussed, and the fundamental moral principles affecting the just relations of man to man were often entirely lost sight of. Some good men there were in power in church and state at times, but the early rules of advanced and enlarged organiza tion of society were almost exclusively in the interest of the promoters of the organization. The laws of King Ethelbert, who ruled in Kent and the south at the advent of the mission of St. Augustine and was converted under his preaching, are not much but a classification of fines to be paid for murders and thefts committed, graded according to the rank of the party injured, and according the church and clergy protection, even greater than that afforded the king and his officers, that is, punishing offenses against them with even higher fines. The power of the church was rapidly extended, and the spiritual rulership of Rome became a substantial exercise of actual power through the medium of the officials of the church. It would be foreign to our plan to attempt to follow the details, more or less questionable, of the struggles of the kings of Sus sex, Wessex, Kent, Mercia, Northumbria and Anglia with each other or with the Celtic population, or the schemes by.
