Excerpt from Democracy or Despotism This book has been written in an effort to show that if the world goes wrong with us, it is our own fault that it does so. If we do not like what the great private monopolies are doing, the way is clear to do ourselves what ought to be done instead. Practically everywhere there is liberty enough so that if the people would use the power they have they could speedily make an end of oppression, an end of needless poverty and a beginning of a healthful, normal, glad-hearted life for all. Everywhere the private interests are strong enough and bad enough so that, with a little more of inactivity on the part of the many, despotism will be everywhere enthroned - all of liberty will be lost. The mockery of the oppressor will be justified and the millions, for whom deliverance is now so easily in reach, will be once more enslaved.

Excerpt from Democracy In the same manner, all political writers of' the old world, give the same meaning to these terms respectively, and uniformly use them in their relative grammatical sense. All attempts to put down monarchical power, and elevate the people, they call Democracy. It, is the same in England.

Excerpt from What Is Democracy? Revolt from tyranny is not democracy. This is the throwing-off of intolerable burdens that prevent democracy; and as democracy has been prevented, so is there no preparation for it and anarchy results. The tyrannized people go to excess, knowing not the civic restraint of self-discipline. Excess is the Oppo site of democracy. The red revolutions of past and present are the negation of democracy, although the released people may eventually become democratic. Democracy is more stable than despotism.

Excerpt from Democracy and Dictatorship: Their Psychology and Patterns of Life History was my main source of information.

The Ger man community under the Nazi regime and contemporary Soviet society formed the empirical basis for the study of the Fascist and Communist way of life. Certain aspects in the evolution of the modern Western world, the evolution of the working class in particular, also added material for the study of Communism.

Excerpt from The Trial of Our Democratic Form of Government: The Great Question Now to Be Solved, Is a Democratic Government a Possible Thing, or Must We Have a Despotism? I can say most truly, that in the gloomy fore bodings for the immediate future of this country I have great sympathy with you. During many years I have had serious fears, because I have had a keen sense of the degraded character of too many of the political leaders, and I have with sorrow beheld the increasing perversion of their ends and aims.
