Individualism and Collectivism: Four Lectures

More about the book

Excerpt from Individualism and Collectivism: Four Lectures Our political practice, and our political theory, alike utterly reject those regal pre rogatives which once passed unquestioned. Though our forms of speech and our State-documents still assert the subjection of the citizens to the ruler, our actual beliefs and our daily proceedings implicitly assert the contrary. Nor has the rejection of primitive political beliefs resulted only in transferring the authority of an autocrat to a representative body.
