To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
still, if all militant patriotism were to be subtracted from the vast sum which make up the inhumanities, few nations could be spiritually conquered ; as, for instance. India and China have not.
I come now to the second instinct, the more iniquitous of the two ; the tribal instinct for loot without which no imperialism can come into being.
If we go back to the age of the gens we find that wealth was more or less communal ; that every man within it knew every other's possession as more or less h...is own : that every goods inequality was more fictitious than real. This was, too. more or less the case when the gens had grown into the tribe. As the tribe was nothing more or less than a greater gens, formed for the purpose of mutual pro- tection, all property which had belonged to the various gentes became de jure the property of the tribe and hence communal. Thus every addition to the common stock of the tribe was conducive to the wel- fare of the individual ; and. conversely, every lessening of the com- mon stock, or every tribute paid marauding chiefs or loss made 226 THE OPEN COURT through inter-tribal warfare had to be paid for by the individual.
