Overview

Excerpt from Our Salvation But will prejudice die down? Are its present symp toms merely those of a temporary spasm? Condemning, as I most heartily do, those excrescences of nationalism which have led to despotisms and greeds without number, I cannot but regard the movement toward national solidar ity as, on the whole. A necessary and beneficial stage in the growth of the human gender. Leaving aside all theories of race as affecting nationality, it is. On large lines, necessary and beneficial that national civilizations should preserve their individuality and develop it along typical lines. This is the higher political wisdom of the nineteenth as against the eighteenth century; the latter's ideal was that of a vast republic of cosmopolized humanity the former. With broader toleration, favors the diversification of historic national ities under congenial forms of government. Once we have grasped the underlying justice of nationalism we cannot but regard anti-semitism as a chronic disease, caused by fester ing from foreign matter. It requiresconsiderable courage to say this: it seems granting the whole position of anti Semitism; but it is simply judging our neighbor by imagining ourselves in his place.
