Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Study of Nations, an Experiment in Social Education: With Chapters on China and Japan
The American Nation has gradually recognized that the trend of world-events has swept it from a place of minor importance in international relations to a place of major in?uence in world affairs. On the one hand, its internal affairs have become SO entangled with its neighbor-nations that it cannot longer solve its own problems without a due understanding of the national traditions, aspirations, and needs of the peo ples surrounding it. On the other hand, it has become so powerful in the world's respect that it has with sudden compulsion been forced to assume, along with the other great societies of the earth, its full share of responsibility for world-civilization.
