Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fruits of Victory: A Sequel to the 'Great Illusion' In such hard realities as the exaction of an indemnity, we see governments forced to policies which can only make their task more difficult, but which they are compelled to adopt in order to placate electoral opinion, or to repel an opposition which would exploit some prevailing prejudice or emotion. To understand the nature of forces which must determine America's main domestic and foreign policies - as they have determined. Those of Western Society in Europe during the last generation - is surely an American interest though indeed, in neglecting the significance of those hidden currents flowing continually beneath the surface Of political history. American students of politics would be following much European precedent. Although public Opinion and feeling are the raw material with which statesmen deal, it is still considered irrelevant and academic to study the constituent elements of that raw material.
