This book, originally published in 1959, makes explicit the social principles which underlie the procedures and political practice of the modern democratic state. The authors take the view that in the modern welfare state there are problems connected with the nature of law, with concepts like rights, justice, equality, property, punishment, responsibility and liberty and which modern philosophical techniques can illuminate.

Excerpt from Liberty and Law: Or Outlines of a New System for the Organization and Administration of Federative Government A careful study has convinced me that the main danger to the permanence Of our Federative republican institutions lies, firstly, in an originally defi cient machinery Of State and Federal organization; and, secondly, in a misconception on the part of our governments, State and Federal, of their full duties under the law. To the former defects we owe the outbreak of the late war, which, under a properly constructed machinery of State and Federative governments, would never have occurred; to the latter we owe the growth of those powerful monopolies that, in conjunction with ignorance and impurity, alternately supporting and deriving support from these, threaten every form of liberty that has grown dear to us. The demoralization consequent upon the late war has hastened the general recognition Of this latter defect in our political organization, by developing the powers of those monopolies in our midst to an extent which makes the danger threatened by them directly perceptible to every citizen. It would have been useless at any previous period in our history to expose these sores on our political body and prescribe their cure. But I think the time has come now when the minds of the people are ripe for a thorough reorganization of our State and Federative governments, leaving the grand idea of their founders untouched in the main, but supplying the elements that are needed in order to remove the disorders which must otherwise under mine their life. It may be objected that it is too hold a task to sketch even the mere outlines of such an organization, and I readily concede that no higher one can engage the mind of man, than to delineate such a plan through all its features, State, Federal, and International. Nor can I say anything in deprecation, except that the thought of this work has engaged the best part Of my life, and accompanied me throughout all my experience of legal practice and a careful study of civilizations, Of hygiene, and past and contemporary history.
