The article critically appraises the book, "World Politics in Modern Civilization," by Harry Elmer Barnes. The scale of the work is marked from the very outset in its title. It is world politics which Professor Barnes is going to discuss; not the politics of this or that state. And, as it should be, his book unfolds before our eyes vast perspectives of world import. In a first part entitled The Origins of Nationalism, Capitalism, and Imperialism, the author discusses successively nationalism, its origins and significance; the origins of the old colonial movement and the expansion of Europe; and the commercial revolution with its outstanding economic; cultural, and institutional changes.
