Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur
A nntK JN PREFACE This book is intended as an introduction to the study of English Politics, but its scope is virtually limited to one section of the subject. It deals only with the structure of theS tate and the functions of the several organs of government. With abstract political philosophy it is not concerned, nor will there be found here any discussion of the conception or the functions of theS tate in general. My primary object has been to set forth the actual working of theE nglish Constitution of to-day, and to do so with constant reference to the history of the past. I hope, therefore, that the book may be found to fulfil a twofold purpose :to provide an introduction to the history of English I nstitutions, and also to explain the contemporary working of the complicated constitutional machine. The book is in fact based upon lectures which have already, I hope, fulfilled in some measure these purposes. Those lectures have been addressed, in forms varied to suit varying circumstances, to audiences of widely different types :to Oxford undergraduates entering upon their course of study for the Honour School of Modern History; to foreign teachers of many nationalities desirous to obtain a synoptic view of the working of English I nstitutions, and to working-men in several centres of I ndustry, in the hope of inducing them to undertake a more scientific study of Politics ,in the strict sense of the term.
