Abstract
DR. FRIEDMANN has developed in this book a striking theme that demands attention. This is that the National State, by a species of historical dialectic, has reached the end of its development and now passes over into neo-imperialist forms. There is no book on political theory that I have seen during the past year to compare with it in brilliancy or one that I would more readily put into the hands of statesmen and politicians.
