Book Description
Excerpt from Greater European Governments To take a second exposure on a photographic plate, in order to make the picture more accurate, is apt to have the opposite effect. Attempting to bring a description of social conditions or political institutions up to date is more often undertaken, but hardly with greater success; and when it is done in a hurry the defects are increased. Yet the demand for a book dealing in a moderate compass with the governments of the principal belligerents in Europe came so suddenly that it could be met only by using existing material with such few additions and corrections as seemed of primary importance. This volume is an abridgment of the author's "Government of England" which was published ten years ago, and of his "Governments and Parties in Continental Europe" published more than twenty years ago. Until this war the general traits of the political systems therein portrayed had altered little; and although some changes that have occurred since the war have been incorporated, there has been no attempt to cover the conditions brought about by the war. The object has been to show how those governments operate normally in time of peace, not how they have adjusted themselves to intense military stress.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Governments of Europe It is a matter of common observation that during the opening years of the twentieth century there has been, in many portions of the civilized world, a substantial quickening of interest in the principles and problems of human government. The United States is happily among those countries in which the phenomenon can be observed, and we have witnessed in recent times not only the organization of societies and the establishment of journals designed to foster research within the field, but also a notable multiplication and strengthening of courses in political science open to students in our colleges and universities, as well as the development of clubs, forums, extension courses, and other facilities for the increasing of political information and the stimulation of political thinking on the part of the people at large. It is the object of this book to promote the intelligent study of government by supplying working descriptions of the governmental systems of the various countries of western and central Europe as they have taken form and as they operate at the present day. Conceived and prepared primarily as a text for use in college courses, it is hoped none the less that the volume may prove of service to persons everywhere whose interest in the subject leads them to seek the sort of information which is here presented. The content of the book has been determined, in the main, by three considerations. In the first place, it has been deemed desirable to afford a wide opportunity for the comparative study of political institutions, especially by reason of the familiar fact that the governmental system of a minor country may, and frequently does, exhibit elements of novelty and of importance not inferior to those to be observed in the political organization of a greater state. Hence there are included descriptions of the governments of the minor as well as of the major nations of western and central Europe; and the original purpose to attempt some treatment of the governments of the eastern nations has been abandoned, somewhat reluctantly, only because of the demands of space, and because it was felt that this portion of the projected work would perhaps meet no very serious need in the usual college courses.
