The Fourth Republic in Transition
Three events make the year 1951 significant in the history of the Fourth Republic. The first, and most important, was the national elections of June 17. The second was the reversal of an ageold trend by the vote of financial assistance to private, mostly Catholic, schools. The third was the provincial elections (elections cantonales) of October 7 and 14

Evaluating the Potsdam Plan
The Economics of Potsdam
When the Potsdam declarations were made public, Anne O'Hare McCormick (in her column in the New York Times of August 4, 1945) commented: “The scale and novelty of the great experiment is breathtaking. Stalin, Truman and Attlee may be remembered longer than the original Big Three, the war-leaders, because their names are affixed to this document.” The general public, on this side of the Atlantic, is as yet hardly aware of the full implications of …
An International Bill of the Rights of Man
Values for Survival
Germany, Europe and the World
History consists of the general and the particular. The existence of the general is the reason why history repeats itself. In the annals of the past it is surprising to find, time and again, that what is often considered as modern and unique has happened before. Closer study reveals that men, when confronted with a similar set of circumstances have reacted, throughout recorded history, in patterns revealing a marked degree of similarity. If we ar…
The Danger of Stereotypes in Viewing Germany
EVER SO OFTEN an editor receives a manuscript which interests him a great deal—and makes him bristle. If he's in one of his more magisterial moods that day, he decides to preserve his readers from ideas which have the singular demerit.of being different from the editor's, Mr. Hermens' manuscript arrived on one of our less magisterial days.

The Tyrants' War and the Peoples' Peace
Ballots and the Democratic Class Struggle
Public Opinion and the Peace
Wartime Elections in Ireland
The cardinal principle of political philosophy has been formulated as “politique d'abord”—politics comes first. This is true in the sense that whatever other advantages a country has, it will not be able to enjoy them in peace and security, unless its political order is firmly established. However, “politique d' abord” has little meaning unless we realize that we must also say “gouvernement d'abord”—government comes first. St. Thomas Aquinas, for…

Exit the Boss
A medieval schoolman, in a disputation with an opponent, would sometimes pause and say distingue . The making of proper distinctions, however, is no easy task. Man is impatient; he wants to arrive at a conclusion immediately, and he frequently decides with a troubled heart before having given the brain its chance to clarify the issue. On the other hand, if we do take the time “to distinguish,” usually half of the battle is won
Proportional Representation and National Unity
Domestic Postwar Problems
The problems of postwar economic planning in the United States are so comprehensive in scope, and the space available for treating them is so definitely limited, that only a few points can even be touched upon. Misunderstandings will be almost inevitable, and the author can only hope that the interested reader will refer to his previous publications in which some of the basic problems have been dealt with in detail. The primary problem of postwar…
