Excerpt from The Complete Revolution HE Republic is bursting from its Eighteenth Century clothes. A sys tem designed for loosely federated states no longer serves. The Twen tieth Century brings a new dawn and a new deal. The day for patching, tinkering and compromises has gone. The time for revolution has arrived. People are not satisfied with their government. Upon one thing both great parties agree, that only under leadership of radi cals can they have chance for success. The law of progress is change, and without progress there can be no stability. When there has been a long time without change, revolution must come to set stabil ity up again. The system of government in the United States has not changed in one hundred years, although in this period there have been more changes in the manner of living and in the organi zation of society, than there were in the previous thousand years. Government has become out of plumb with the times. Change needed amounts to a revolution; not a revolution of blood, but revolution of method, such as that of 1688 in England, which peacefully established the supremacy of Parliament over the King. Today it comes to establish the su premacy of the people in their government. The first American Revolution abolished monar chy and proclaimed the equal right of every citizen in his government. The time was not ripe, however, for the complete working out of the demo cratic idea. For government by king was substi tuted government by machinery. The machine set up was with checks and balances, reserved rights and parchment restrictions. At the base were thir teen states of semi-sovereign power. At the top were Congress and an executive as nearly independ ent as they could be. Supreme above all was a bench of nine judges appointed for life, and in no way answerable to the people. Democracy, through suspicion and inexperience, forged its own chains. They were chains neverthe less. It is fair to believe, that in a period when Europe was all ablaze with revolution, and again ablaze with reaction, these chains were necessary to hold the young republic in its course. Today, how ever, every essential of the first revolution is su preme and uncontested. The chains, which served their purpose, have now for twenty years held us back, so that the younger democracies, in Australia and Europe, have ceased to look to us for guidance.

Excerpt from History of the French Revolution, Vol. 1 of 2: From 1789 to 1814 Such reforms could not be effected without encountering great difficulties; and transient evils necessarily followed in the train of solid and enduring ameliorations. The privileged classes wished to prevent, Europe tried to subdue, the revolution; and thus, forced into the struggle, it could neither measure its efforts nor moderate its triumphs. Resistance from within led to the sovereignty of the multitude, and aggression from without to the military domination. Nevertheless, in spite Of anarchy and despotism, the Object has been attained; ancient society has been destroyed during the revolution, and a new spirit established under the empire.

Excerpt from The Old Regime and the Revolution The book I now publish is not a history of the Revolution. That history has been too brilliantly written for me to think of writing it afresh. This is a mere essay on the Revolution. The French made, in 1789, the greatest effort that has ever been made by any people to sever their history into two parts, so to speak, and to tear open a gulf between their past and their future. In this design, they took the greatest care to leave every trace of their past condition behind them; they imposed all kinds of restraints upon themselves in order to be different from their ancestry; they omitted nothing which could disguise them. I have always fancied that they were less successful in this enterprise than has been generally believed abroad, or even supposed at home. I have always suspected that they unconsciously retained most of the sentiments, habits, and ideas which the old regime had taught them, and by whose aid they achieved the Revolution; and that, without intending it, they used its ruins as materials for the construction of their new society. Hence it seemed that the proper way of studying the Revolution was to forget, for a time, the France we see before us, and to examine, in its grave, the France that is gone.

Excerpt from A Century of Revolution The French Revolution of 1789 - the Revolution of these latter days; Importance of understanding it aright; To obtain the instruction which is the true end of historical research, we must discern the ideas of which events are the phenomenal expression; The public order which the Revolution destroyed, rested on the idea of divinely prescribed duty; The Revolutionists attempted to rebuild it on the idea of political rights, attaching to man qua man; Their method social geometry; They applied this method to the speculations of Rousseau, and endeavoured to translate into institutions his Contrat Social; These speculations postulate that men are absolutely equivalent, and that the will of the majority is the source and norm of all rights About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Lectures on the French Revolution The revenue of France was near twenty millions when Lewis XVI., finding it inadequate, called upon the nation for supply. In a Single lifetime it rose to far more than one hundred millions, while the national income grew still more rapidly; and this increase was wrought by a class to whom the ancient monarchy denied its best rewards, and whom it deprived of power in the country they enriched. As their industry effected change in the distribution of property, and wealth ceased to be the prerogative of a few, the excluded majority perceived that their disabilities rested on no foundation of right and justice, and were unsupported by reasons Of State. They proposed that the prizes in the Government, the Army, and the Church should be given to merit among the active and necessary portion of the people, and that no privilege injurious to them should be reserved for the unprofitable minority. Being nearly an hundred to one, they deemed that they were virtually the substance of the nation, and they claimed to govern themselves with a power proportioned to their numbers. They demanded that the State should be reformed, that the ruler should be their agent, not their master. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
