Abstract

Foreign and Colonial Troubles of the British Government
February 5, 1885 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the foreign affair and colonial troubles of the British government. A question is raised as whether a democratic country is unfit to have a foreign policy. It is a question that Englishmen have now been led to consider with more anxiety and less self-complacency by the ill luck which has attended them in almost every dealing they have had with foreign Powers since foreign affairs began to become an important part of their national action. As Parliament is not sitting, as few members of the Government have lately spoken in public, and as they are always obliged to maintain much reserve in discussing the behavior of foreign Powers, their defense has not been heard.
