Excerpt from Politics and Metaphysics
If there is a science of politics, it must be developed as other sciences have been, by an examination and com parison of historical data with a view to the discovery of the causes which underlie important political phenomena, -a.nd not, as is too often done, by judging of such phe nomena according to purely empirical rules. It is equally fallacious to justify political action by its results, or to condemn it on a priori grounds; and it is only by the application of the inductive method that revolutionary periods, like those of Machiavelli and Napoleon, can be properly understood.
