This collection of Readings in Political Science is designed to accomi pany the editors Introduction toP olitical Science, and the choice and I arrangement of material have been influenced by the plan of that volume, ]A tthe same time it may be used lo accompany other manuals that cover I the general field of political science, or it may be read with profit by all Jwho desire an introduction to the body of literature that deals with the 4origin, development, organization, and activities of the state. All teachers realize the necessity of having their students read more Vthan is contained in the textbook, and valuable selections of material ti direct such reading have recently appeared for the students of history, economics, sociology, and American government. As yet, however, no |book of readings for the general subject of political science has been |attempted, and the editor claims the indulgence due to one who ventures finto an untried field. In a number of cases contemporary accounts or official documents 1have been quoted, but no effort has been made to secure material from obscure or out-of-the-way sources. On the contrary, extracts have been Jtaken, whenever possible, from recognized modem authorities from |books the majority of which will be found in every well-appointed college I library. In this way it is hoped that students will be led to read further, ug this volume as a framework around which their reading may be I organized. Besides, the selections in this book may serve as a basis for I classroom discussion, the case system of instruction being particularly I applicable to political science. The editor wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to the authors i| whose works have been drawn upon for material in this volume, and tot extend his thanks to the various publishers for their gracious permission 1to reprint this material.
