Overview
In these doubtful and anxious days, when all the world is at
unrest and, look which way you will, the road ahead seems
darkened by shadows which portend dangers of many kinds, it is
only common prudence that we should look about us and attempt to
assess the causes of distress and the most likely means of
removing them.
There must be some real ground for the universal unrest and
perturbation. It is not to be found in superficial politics or in
mere economic blunders. It probably lies deep at the sources of
the spiritual life of our time. It leads to revolution; and if
perhaps we take the case of the Russian Revolution, the
outstanding event of its kind in our age, we may find a good deal
of instruction for our judgment of present critical situations
and circumstances.
