What reading level is The Peoples Government book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
77 THE PEOPLE'S GOVERNMENT But, in truth, authority, in any sense which a jurist can recognize, is not a quan- tity, it is a quality. It proceeds from a dis- crimination between what is right and what is wrong. That distinction cannot be cre- ated, and it cannot be destroyed, by mere volition. It cannot be reduced to terms of force. It cannot be expressed^ in terms of arithmetic. It is apprehended through none of the external senses; it is an affair of the human mind.
Are we dealing now with me...re verbal re- finements and metaphysical conceptions? On the contrary, we are dealing with one of the most immediate, universal, and indis- putable of human intuitions the distinction between right and wrong.
What is the validity of this intuition? It is the same as that of any axiom whatever, namely, that thought is impossible without it. Define them, classify them, or dispute about them as we may, it is impossible tg 78 THE STATE AS A HUMAN IDEAL regard human relations without making a distinction between right and wrong ; as im- possible, in fact, as to fix the attention upon objects in space without being aware that the shortest distance between any two points is a straight line.
