Excerpt from Government and Politics in the Twentieth Century
The distinguishing feature of modern government is its universal recognition and acceptance as an active force in the forming of economic and social conditions. In the United States, there remains a much greater attachment than in Great Britain or in France to the idea that govem ment should be only an umpire adjudicating the rules by which other forces in society compete, but even there such governmental activities as the tva or credit controls to prevent economic fluctuation are now accepted with little question. Thus, in the older democracies, and still more in the newer developing states as well as in Communist controlled countries, government is looked on as a major, or even the dominant, organizing power in society.

Excerpt from Government and Politics in the Twentieth Century
Democracy is characterized further by respect for minor ity and individual rights, by the use of discussion rather than force to settle disputes, by an acceptance of the legitimacy of the system under which the people are governed, and by the experimental method. Democracies have ideals and objectives, but they do not have fixed goals. Thus they proceed through trial and error, changing their programs in response to popular need and present circum stance. All states are limited by their past and by their environment, but democracies believe that they are not restricted by any inevitable process of history and thatthere exist opportunities for experiment and choice of alternatives.
