Description

Excerpt from The Open Court, Vol. 28: January, 1914 In much the same way we come occasionally upon the long buried human story which, when cleared of the desert sand, proves to be of unexpected use under the most modern circumstances. Possibly those who know more than I do about political economy and the various tendencies of the time which are loosely termed socialistic, may find this to be the case with the story of W ang-an shih,1 the great Chinese statesman of the Sung dynasty. The world is ready to concede that China is to-day learning and preparing to use many of the painfully acquired lessons of our western civilization. Perhaps it has occurred to but few to inquire whether or not China may possess in her wonderful history lessons which are not altogether lost to memory and which, both by way of example and warning, should prove useful to us in America and Europe! After all, China is an experiment in democracy vastly older than anything else which exists, and out of the treasures of her experience it should be possible to draw lessons not a few.
