Some Reactions to the Revelations About the CIA
We publish below the notes from which Professor Wilson (of the Politics Department at Princeton) spoke to the National Council of the Emergency Civil Liberties Committee in New York on May 13. In doing so we wish to associate ourselves with his interpretation of the meaning and significance of the CIA revelations. - The EditorsThis article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here…
Pressure Group, the Campaign for Commercial Television in England
Reflections on the Spanish Civil War
It is perhaps fortunate that human memory is so brief, for otherwise we might lose our sanity. On the other hand our inability to remember the lessons of the past dooms us to repeat our errors.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review website

Is Conviction Enough
No one recently in Britain should have been surprised by the results of the October General Election. It was all too painfully apparent that the Labor Party had neither the leadership nor policy capable of arousing the enthusiasm of a populace intrigued by its first taste of a consumption economy. It is undoubtedly premature to interpret the results of the election as spelling the doom of the Labor Party. It still has over 12 million voters and h…

The Problem of Power
Power is the substance of politics. As Harold Lasswell has emphasized, "When we speak of the science of politics, we mean the science of power." Power is the ability to control the actions of men, to influence their behavior so that one may make and enforce decisions; it may be exerted through the threat of physical violence, by the ability to grant or withhold economic opportunity, or by control over the sources of information.This article can a…

Some Principal Aspects of British Efforts to Crush The African Slave Trade, 1807-1929
One function of the British Foreign Office has been to promote the universal abolition of slavery, the slave trade, and analogous forms of involuntary servitude. It has been said that “International co-operation for the suppression of the African slave trade was one of the most significant developments of the nineteenth century.” If this is so, it should not be a superfluous task to consider the legal aspects of the principal methods which the pr…

Art. IV.— Summary Review of the Travels of Hiouen Thsang, from the Translation of the Si-yu-ki by M. Julien, and the Mémoire Analytique of M. Vivien de St. Martin
In an appendix to the publication of the translatíon of the Travels of Fa Hian , the Foe Koue Ki , was added an itinerary professing to be that of another Chinese traveller, Hiouen Thsang , who visited India in the first half of the seventh century. As it was an extract from a geographical Encyclopædia of comparatively recent compilation, some doubt was suggested as to the degree of confidence to which it was entitled, although enough of interest…
Art. V. On the Sacrifice of Human Beings as an Element of the Ancient Religion of India
I Propose to offer to the Society some illustrations of the sacrifice of human beings as an element of the ancient religion of India. In the first book of the Ramayana a curious legend is narrated of the son of the Rishi Richíka, named S'unahśephas, who was sold by his father for a hundred thousand cows to Ambarísha, the king of Ayodhyá, to supply the place of a sacrificial animal or victim intended for a sacrifice, but stolen by Indra. S'unahśep…
Art. XI.—Lecture on the present State of the Cultivation of Oriental Literature
It has been judged possible, by the Council of the Royal Asiatic Society, that the objects for which the Society was founded, and for which it is maintained, may be made more generally known, and more accurately appreciated, by the adoption of arrangements of a more popular character than our ordinary proceedings, and which may interest a more numerous and varied portion of the public than the Members of the Society only, in matters concerning th…
Art. V.—On the Rock Inscriptions of Kapur di Giri, Dhauli, and Girnar
The circumstances under which the remarkable inscription at Shah baz gheri or Kapur di Giri was discovered and transcribed by Mr. Masson, and decyphered by Mr. Dowson and Mr. Norris have been already detailed in a preceding Journal, vol. VIII, and it was then shown by a comparison of one of the divisions of the inscription with a similar division of those of Girnar and Dhauli, that they were all three substantially the same. The interest excited …

Art. XV.—Notes on the Sabhá Parrva of the Mahábhárata, illustrative of some Ancient Usages and Articles of Traffic of the Hindus
The subject of the Sanskrit poem called the Mahábhárata is well known to be the struggle for supremacy between two kindred and rival families, those of Pándu and Kuru. The event is in all probability historically true, and the circumstances related in the poem, however blended with fiction and coloured by mythology, are in many instances likely to be substantially authentic. It is, however, Jn the episodical portions with which the poem abounds, …

Art. VIII.— Account of the Foe Kúe Ki, or Travels of Fa Hian in India
To all those who take an interest in the early condition of India, and who are anxious to see that obscurity which hangs over the periods of its history prior to the Mohammedan invasion, dissipated, in however partial a degree, some most acceptable glimmerings of light have been presented in a recent continental publication. This work is derived from Chinese literature, and has been made accessible to European readers, by the talents and industry…
Art. IX.— Historical Sketch of the Kingdom of Pándya, Southern Peninsula of India
The following sketch of the history of the principality of Pándya, one of the earliest political divisions of southern India, was compiled several years ago, from documents contained in the manuscript collections of the late Colonel Mackenzie. It was prepared before the completion and publication of my catalogue of those collections, and it was my intention to have revised it at some future period, with the assistance of such further materials as…
Art. XIX.—Supplementary Note to the Historical Sketch of the Kingdom of Pandya
Shortly after the paper which the Royal Asiatic Society has thought worthy of a place in the present Number of the Journal, the Historical Sketch of the Kingdom of Pandya, was printed, I procured a copy of a valuable work recently transmitted to England from Madras, “Oriental Historical Manuscripts in the Tamil Language; translated, with Annotations, by William Taylor, Missionary.” The most important of the manuscripts, now first published by Mr.…
Art. II.— Essays on the Puránas . I
The earliest inquiries into the religion, chronology, and history of the Hindús, ascertained that there existed a body of writings especially devoted to those subjects, from which it was sanguinely anticipated much valuable and authentic information would be derived. These were the Puránas of Sanscrit literature, collections which, according to the definition of a Purána agreeably to Sanscrit writers, should treat of the creation and renovation o…

Art XIX.—Essays on the Puránas. II
The Pádma Purána, which in the Pauranic lists occupies the second place, and in its own enumeration the first, is a work of considerable extent; according to the best authorities, and to its own statements, it consists of fifty-five thousand slokas, and the copies that are current actually contain little less than that number, or about 50,000
Article V. Extract from the work entitled or, Fountains of Information respecting the classes of Physicians, by Muuaffik-uddín Abú-'labbás Ahmad Ibn Abú Usaibiâh
The following extract was originally made with the view of forming a collection of such passages relative to India as may occur in Arabic writers. The further prosecution of this design appears to be rendered unnecessary by the publication of a work by Mr. Gildemeister, of Bonn, of which the first fasciculus has appeared, entitled Scriptorum Arabum de Rebus Indicis loci et opuscula inedita , 8vo. Bonn, 1838. At page 94, he has spoken at some leng…
