Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Immediate Problems: An Address Delivered on December 12, 1922 It has been often said, and it is wholly true, that there have been changes more fundamental in the mode of living of the world in the last seventy-five years than in the preceding two thousand years. From the time that the conception and the fact of space and distance came to be radically modified by the railroad, the telegraph and the steamship, and that the industrial processes and conditions became revolutionized by the advent of the machine, things have rushed upon humankind which have made life fuller and quicker and infinitely more complex. To the vast and unprecedented change from age-long habits and practices thus brought about with almost unthinkable rapidity, the world has not yet adjusted itself fully. Least of all, in the system and methods of government. In the midst of these vast changes, of immense material progress, of unparalleled advances in the field of science, the system and methods of government have undergone relatively very little modification from what they were in the pre-machine period.
