Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Liberty The necessity of teaching, not only to young Americans but to all prospective Americans, the meaning and mis sion of political liberty has but lately found expression in the movement known as Americanization. What is liberty as exemplified in American institutions? Where and how did it originate? Through what struggles and triumphs has it advanced? What peoples have always been its defenders, and how have its influence and bless ings been finally extended to include all nations of the earth? It is upon a knowledge of the facts implied in such questions as these that young American Citizens, whether native or foreign-born, are to become truly Americanized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Standard of Liberty: An Occasional Paper Executive patronage under our constitution, is thought to put the Governor beyond the reach of the people; that when he has fenced himself with appointments under him, it is difficult, if not impossible to prevent his re-election. So far is this from being the fact, that it is his appointments which give him all his trouble, and lay the foundation of an opposition. We need not recur to a saying of Lewis 14th to prove this; that when he had confered an office or an honour, he made many dissatisfied, and one man ungrateful. He is ungrate ful, either because it is the nature of an obligation to produce ingratitude or because the man thinks himself injured in get ing less than his due. If I am to administer a government, and wish a continuance in office, or to escape enmities, let me have no appointments in my gift. It is invidious to select the qualified or bestow emoluments. What a host does not a Go vernor raise up against himself, in the exercise of such a trust? There can be but one man in many appointed to ohice; and yet all, or most expect offices. So blind is self-love that few men suspect their incapacity, or call in question their deseit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Defense of Liberty Classic Reprint written by Oliver Brett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Defense of Liberty The statue of Liberty in New York Harbor is a somewhat trite object of contemplation. Both the cynic and the idealist have used that gigantic image to fill the gaps of many a moral tale and idle platitude. Its magnificent position, its ironic proximity to the marvelous metropolis of modern commerce, its embodiment of the ideas of Jefferson and Rousseau are so compelling a combination that I do not see how that dominating figure can fail to stir the pulses or quicken the imagination. Great is Diana of the Ephesians. It pleases men to solidify their ideals. The world is strewn with the frozen memorials of this desire, the desire for definite and unchangeable standards, the desire to record once and for all that this and no other is what we believe, and shall always believe. And, as in the case of Ozymandias, "nothing beside remains." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Logical Foundations of Constitutional Liberty written by James M. Buchanan and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thirty-one papers presented in this volume offer scholars and general readers alike a comprehensive introduction to the work of one of the greatest economists of the modern era. Many of Buchanan's most important essays are gathered in this inaugural volume of the twenty-volume series from Liberty Fund of his Collected Works. The editors have focused on papers that Buchanan has written without collaboration and which present Buchanan's earlier, classic statements on crucial subjects rather than his subsequent elaborations which appear in later volumes in the series. Included, too, is Buchanan's Nobel address, "The Constitution of Economic Policy," and the text of the Nobel Committee's press release explaining why Buchanan was awarded the prize for Economics in 1986. The volume also includes Buchanan's autobiographical essay, "Better Than Plowing," in which he gives not only a brief account of his life, but also his own assessment of what is important, distinctive, and enduring in his work. The foreword by the three series editors will be valuable to all readers who wish to engage the challenging but epochal writings of the father of modern public choice theory. --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on Liberty The cufiom to which I have here alluded has upon no occahon been exercifed with greater alacrity, or pufhed to a greater extent, than upon the momentous fubjeét of Liberty. To the comprehen fivenefs and magnitude of this principle, in which the duties and happinefs of all beings are primarily concerned, we are to attribute the earnefinefs of difcuflion, and the variety of fentiment, which have been employed in explanations of it's nature and it's end. Hence we may account too for that aétive fpirit of penetration, which has carried it's inquiries into the firft foundations of Govern ment, and for that latitude of pr1v1lege, which every one afferts, to examine without conf'traint every fyftem, upon which the moral and political welfare of mankind may depend. The immediate and important influence, therefore, which the direction of this habit has upon the beit interef'cs of Liberty, will be evident to all, who re flect that upon this fubjeé't almoft every man eftabliihes the right of private judgment for himfelf; that every feeling of his vanity, and every effort of his fagacity, is eagerly bufied in drawing the moft favourable conclufions for unlimited freedom, and that from fuch conclufions have refulted the moft dreadful outrages that have de formed the moral and political order of the w.orld The attempt, then, to defcribe in it's true colours, and to fix. Within it's true limits, that to which the blindnefs of errour and the turbulence of pafiion have given a fhape fo difiorted, and a power fo uncontrouled, muf't appear of the weightief't moment in the opinion of thofe, to whom the real Liberties of mankind are valuable, in proportion as they are accurately underflood, and temperately enjoyed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Modern Liberty The study of political theories seems to be attracting considerable attention at present, a number of able writers, such as Dunning, Willoughby, Merriam. Osgood, and others having recently made contributions to this branch of research. Political theories are not only of theoretical interest, but have at times greatly influenced historical development. This is true in marked degree of those ideas whose genesis is traced in the following pages. They have been put forward repeatedly as a protest against oppression and arbitrary power. Their greatest influence, however, has made itself felt since the American Revolution. They have in large measure contributed to make our American political institutions what they are to-day. They are often spoken of as American principles. Though they did not originate in this country, they were here for the first time incorporated in the political programme of a great nation, and have been more completely realized here than in any other country. The following dissertation was begun at the suggestion of Professor Max Lenz of the University of Berlin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Freedom and Liberty In July 1916 I published an essay under the title of 'Freedom'. Its aim was purely ethical; that is, to show that, for the purposes of human evolution, each of the two opposites, law, or organic control, and liberty, or life, was of equal importance: that there can be no continued growth of the race as a whole without an equal growth of each of these conflicting principles. Beyond this conclusion I was unable to go. I recognized that as a system my philosophy was incomplete. It failed to provide the single final end without which the deduction of ethical values is impossible. But, at the time, I had little hope of carrying the inquiry further, and I published the results, as far as they went, in a cheap form, to preserve them from oblivion. In my previous writings I had indicated that the universal final end of ethics must be found in religion, and there only.

This state of affairs puzzles the politicians, and as they toss about in their little canoes upon the sea of public opinion, many of them are hoisting their sails to catch a breeze which no longer exists, and in a condition of agitated imbecility are peering about the horizon wondering which way the wind blows; some are even demented enough to think they can fill their sails with their own feeble breath, and are puff ing away like mad in ludicrous imitation of the storm that has gone by.
