That American interest in the problems here discussed is hardly
less vital than that of Europe I am even more persuaded than when
the first American edition of this book was issued in 1910. It is
certain that opinion in America will not be equipped for dealing
with her own problems arising out of her relations with the Spanish
American states, with Japan, with the Philippines, unless it has
some fair understanding of the principles with which this book
deals. Its general interest even goes farther than this: no great
community like that of modern America can remain indifferent to the
drift of general opinion throughout the world on matters wrapped up
with issues so important as those of war and peace. That the
tangible commercial and business interests of America are involved
in these European events is obvious from the very factors of
financial and commercial interdependence which form the basis of
the argument. That the interests of Americans are inextricably, if
indirectly, bound up with those of Europe, has become increasingly
clear as can be proved by the barest investigation of the trend of
political thought in this country.
