POLITICAL SCIENCE
‘Tlie Ship of State,” Ry Edward Jenks (London: Duckworth). This slim volume by the Emeritus Professor of English at the University of London claims to provide the essentials of political science. Certainly the field so concisely covered is an extensive one, including studies on the nature of the State, the origin and early history of the State, the fusion of State'and nation, the limits of State action, the forms of the State, party questions, the modern problem of Fascism as a political doctrine as opposed to democracy, and finally the inter national relationships of the State. Naturally the author has drawn largely on English constitutional history for his studies and examples, but the treatise is much more than merely English in scope, full justice being done to the international aspects, particularly those relating to the League of Nations.
