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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays, Vol. 1: Political, Historical, and Miscellaneous The essays now submitted to the Public in a collected form have been written at various times during the last twenty years, and have, for the most part, appeared in Blackwood's Magazine with the Publishers of which the Author, during that long period, has been in terms of unbroken friendship and constant communication. As the Political Papers, which were all published in the Magazine, contain the Contemporary views of an anxious observer of public events during that period, in the course of which the most important questions ever agitated in this country or on the Continent were made the subjects of public discussion, he thinks that, as representing the Opinions of a large portion of Contemporaries on these subjects, they may not be without interest to subsequent times. The measures they embrace are the most important ever brought into action in this or perhaps any other country, and which, for good or for evil.

Download or read book Essays on Practical Politics Classic Reprint written by Theodore Roosevelt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Practical Politics These two essays appeared originally in the Century. Both alike were criticised at the time as offering no cure for the evils they portrayed. Such a criticism shows, in the first place, a curious ignorance of what is meant by the diagnosis of a disease; for my articles pretended to do nothing more than give what has apparently never before been given, an accurate account of certain phases of our political life, with its good and bad impartially set forth. The practical poli tician, who alone knows how our politics are really managed, is rarely willing to write about them, unless with very large reservations, while the student-reformer whose political experience is limited to the dinner table, the debating Club, or an occasional mass-meeting Where none but his friends are present, and who yet seeks. In pamphlet or editorial column to make clear the subject, hardly ever knows exactly what he is talking about, and abuses the system in all its parts with such looseness of language as to wholly take away the value even from such of his utterances as are true.

Download or read book Essays on Political Economy Classic Reprint written by Frederic Bastiat and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Political Economy We must remark, also, that the constant appear ance of money in every exchange has overturned and misled all our ideas: men have ended in think ing that money was true riches, and that to multiply it was to multiply services and products. Hence the prohibitory system; hence paper money; hence the celebrated aphorisrn, What one gains the other loses 5 and all the errors which have ruined the earth, and embrued it with blood.* After much research it has been found, that in order to make the two services exchanged of equivalent value, and in order to render the exchange equitable, the best means was to allow it to be free. How ever plausible, at first sight, the intervention of the State might be, it was soon perceived that it is always Oppressive to one or other of the contracting parties. When we look into these subjects, we are always compelled to reason upon this maxim, that equal value results from liberty We have, in fact, no other means of knowing whether, at a given moment, two services are of the same value, but that of examining whether they can be readily and freely exchanged. Allow the State, which is the same thing as force, to interfere on one side or the other, and from that moment all the means of appreciation will be complicated and entangled, This error will be combated in a.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays, Literary, Moral and Political Some people are subject to a certain delicacy of passion, which makes them extremely sensible to all the accidents of life, and gives them a lively joy upon every prosperous event, as well as a piercing grief, when they meet with misfortunes and adversity. Favours and good offices easily engage their friendship while the smallest injury provokes their resentment. Any honour or mark of distinction elevates them above measure; but they are as sensibly touched with contempt. People of this character have, no doubt, more lively enjoyments, as well as more pungent sorrows, than men of cool and sedate tempers but, I believe, when everything is balanced, there is no one, who would not rather be of the latter character, were he entirely master of his own disposition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cobden and Modern Political: Opinion Essays on Certain Political Topics But the advantages of anonymous political and literary criticism far outweigh the disadvantages. So much do they outweigh them that one regrets that, of late years, the world has been informed about many of the persons who write for, and nearly all those who manage, the London press. But if such writing ceases to be anonymous, it will either lose its liveliness, or engender strong personal animosities. Few Englishmen would, I imagine, care to see the system of the French press introduced among us, with its brag, its mendacity, its malignity. It is one thing to be attacked by a system, a company, a joint-stock proprietary, another to be always jostling against a man who gets his living by disparaging your reputation, and distorting your utterances.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays Political, Social, and Religious If, as is generally felt, England is at present without any definite foreign policy, drifting onwards under the dictation of circumstances, without any real prevision, the time is not ill chosen for speaking. If any one has convictions, it is as well he should state them. All that can be required of such an one is, that he should give the only guarantee a private Citizen can give - that he shall refuse to shelter himself in an anonymous publication. He should be ready, by giving his name, to meet any ridicule or odium that may attach to his views. I have abstained from any quotations in support of my positions. Such quotations would have shown how little original they are; at the same time, they might have lent them weight. But it seemed an object not to increase the size of the work.
