Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Germany and the Germans, Vol. 2 of 2 How comes it that English people ordinarily take but a superficial interest in German politics? That while the gyrations of French parties are followed with tolerable closeness, it is only in the time of exceptional excitement that the Briton, to whom a political atmosphere is life and health, ceases to be indifferent, and then only temporarily, to the movements and policies of parties in Germany. Probably the first reason that suggests itself is also the weightiest. Germany is not under parliamentary government. In neither her Imperial Assembly nor in the Diets of the Federal States are affairs really controlled by parties and votes. There is thus lacking to parliamentary life a strong popular factor and influence. Prince Bismarck once passed a joke at Parliamentary England - that country which "changes its Ministry every Thursday." But there is something which even the most reactionary part of a democratic people would regard as infinitely worse than frequent change of Ministry; it is no change at all.
