Excerpt from The Problem of Administrative Areas: An Essay in Reconstruction
In the winter of 1917 I was invited by the Department of History in Smith College to give three lectures on the State. I there suggested that the possibilities of federalism were not confined to territorial problems and were consequently greater than is commonly supposed. My friend, Professor Fay, thought that the idea was worth some further analysis and the Department of History was good enough to accept it as suitable for publication in the Smith College Studies In History. I should like briefly to say that I have throughout emphasized English experience because I know England best; but the argument is not less applicable, mutatis mutandis to American problems. Its theoretical basis will be found fully discussed in the first chapter of my Authority in the Modern State (Yale University Press, 1918).
