Inhaltsangabe

An influential study of political power. This volume (Laski’s first) addresses aspects of the theory of the state, a topic he developed further in Authority in the Modern State (1919) and The Foundations of Sovereignty and Other Essays (1921). Laski’s theoretical ideas are elaborated through examples drawn from recent political and religious movements, such as the Catholic Revival and the creation of the German Empire. He concludes that the state is not a supreme entity; it is one association among many that must compete for the people’s loyalty and obedience. Originally published: New Haven: Yale University Press, 1917. x, [ii], 297 pp.
