Abstract

English Social Democracy during the War

In Great Britain, as elsewhere, the war has caused a serious split in the Socialist ranks. There were sections before and there is at this moment sharp antagonism. Every advance made on the road towards collective action for the benefit of all, through pressure brought to bear upon the upper class minority by the workers themselves, is a step forward which it will be exceedingly difficult to retrace after the war. But it is very remarkable indeed that not a single measure of real value to the overwhelming majority of the people of Great Britain has been brought forward by the governing classes.
