Professor Dunning's three volumes are a splendid monument to his scholarship, and must serve as the basis for the work of any later writer. His last volume, however, leaves unexplained the theories of the past half century, during which period important movements have taken place. His work makes no attempt to trace the development of the theory of international relations, and gives practically no attention to the development of political thought in the United States. It also shows little realization of the connection between economic and political theory during the past two centuries. It is rather a survey of political literature than a history of the development of political thought in relation to its historical, institutional, and intellectual background. The present volume aims to meet, to some extent, these deficiencies.
