Excerpt from The Science of Politics, Vol. 45

That there is an ideal polity for each State, if not one for all States, I steadfastly believe. But it is only to be discovered in the paths of history and observa tion.

In passing from the 'science of Law' to that Of Politics, some change of method is inevitable, owing to the superior complexity and larger range of the subject matter. But the exercise, once become familiar in the narrower field, of applying a severe terminology and logical process to ethical notions will be found of the highest service in the wider field.

A two years' journey round the world, in the course of which I visited the chief centres of political life ancient and modern, in Europe, America, Australasia, Polynesia, and North Africa, has not only helped me with illustrations, but has been of. No small use in stimulating thought.
