Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Irish Ecclesiastical Record, Vol. 29: A Monthly Journal, Under Episcopal Sanction The year 1910 has passed without any serious political complications. There were, indeed, difficulties in regard to the Balkan Provinces, the annexations of Austria, the position of Crete, the policy of the Young Turkish party, and the commercial relations of certain territories in Africa lying along the Mediterranean, but these difficulties have not proved too great for the powers of diplomacy. In European politics the most startling events were the revolution in Portugal and the progress of the constitutional struggle in Great Britain. The former was not unexpected. Since the assassination of King Carlos in February, 1908, the establishment of a republic was felt to be only a matter of time and opportunity. The progress of the latter was interrupted by the death of King Edward and the accession of a new sovereign but the conference, having failed to arrive at a solution, the prime minister deemed it his duty to submit the question to the judgment of the electors. As far as can be seen from the returns of the electoral contests, the country has approved of the Liberal policy. The position of the House of Lords in the English constitution is admittedly something of an anomaly, and it only required that public attention should be fixed upon the hereditary principle and the right of absolute veto to bring about a revision of its constitution or its powers, or possibly of both.
