Présentation de l'éditeur
The inductive method is now such an important factor in all scientific work that it has become fashionable to regard with contempt any discussion in economics and politics that is not based on elaborate statistics and the citation of numerous individual cases. The author yields to no one in his high regard for the valuable work of painstaking scholars, who have given us in portant scientific laws, based upon many years of research work in the laboratory. And yet, our point of view has been perverted by an exclusive adherence to the forms of inductive reasoning we have so accustomed ourselves to scrutinize the individual trees that we lose ourselves in a dense forest of economic and political life. Without disregarding the inductive method, this book is an attempt to free our minds from a citation of instances until the general principles are obscured in a maze of figures and repeated observations. We are concerned here with basic considerations, with fundamental analyses, and not with extended arguments and long-drawn-out proofs for theories that another inductive scholar will tear to shreds within a decade. We are told that the great jurist, Chief Justice John Marshall, would often deliver the most momentous decisions, relying solely on logic and the general principles of law for the support of his judgments, with the remark that Mr. Justice will furnish the citation of cases and precedents. It is time that we inject in our discussions in political science some of the spirit of the Expounder of the American Constitution.
