The first duty imposed on
those who now direct society is to educate democracy; to put, if possible,
new life into its beliefs; to purify its mores; to control its actions;
gradually to substitute understanding of statecraft for present inexperience
and knowledge of its true interests for blind instincts; to adapt
government to the needs of time and place; and to modify it as men
and circumstances require. A new political science is needed for a
world itself quite new.
