NATIONALISM
“ One dominating influence can be indicated in a sentence: in an industrial world both trade and money seek to be international in their movements, while at the same time we have no international machinery, either physical or mental, for dealing with them. There is no authority to-day taring to promote world trade, or empowered to inquire whether the maximum quantity of desirable goods is produced and consumed. Thtre are only partial governments trying to secure for their own nationals some opportunity, not of enjoying goods, but of making a profit which, might otherwise have fallen to the citizens of a different country, whether or not this adds to, Or subtracts from, the volume of their trade as a whole, or even contributes to the real comfort and welfare of the nationals concerned.”—Mr H. G. Wells, in his “ The Work, Wealth, and Happiness of Mankind.”
