<BR /><BR /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; color: #ffffff;"></span>
<p align="left">minds of reasonable human beings. How untenable is the opinion that Socialism must come because social evolution necessarily leads to it, has been shown in earlier sections of
this book. The world<b>inclines to Socialism because the great majority of people want it. They want it because they believe that Socialism will</b>
guarantee a higher standard of welfare. The loss of this conviction would signify the end of Socialism. CONCLUSION THE HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MODERN SOCIALISM? </p>
<BR />
<p align="left" style="font: 9px;">1: Socialism in History? [332] Nothing is more difficult than to get a clear, historical perspective of a contemporary movement. The proximity of the phenomenon makes it difficult </p>
<BR /><BR />
<p>to recognize the whole in true proportion. Historical judgment above all demands distance. Wherever Europeans or the descendants of European emigrants live, we see
Socialism at work today; and in Asia it is the banner round which the antagonists of European civilization gather. If the intellectual dominance
of Socialism remains unshaken, then in a short time the whole co-operative system of culture which Europe has built up during thousands of years will
be shattered. For a socialist order of society is unrealizable. All efforts to realize Socialism lead only to the destruction of society. Factories,
mines, and railways will come to a standstill, towns will be deserted. The population of the industrial territories will die out or migrate elsewhere.
The farmer will return to the self-sufficiency of the closed, domestic economy. Without private ownership in the means of production there is, in </p>
<BR />
<p>the long run, no production other than a hand-to-mouth production for one’s own needs. We need not describe in detail the cultural and political consequences of
such a transformation. Nomad tribes from the Eastern steppes would again raid and pillage Europe, sweeping across it with swift cavalry. Who could
resist them in the thinly populated land left defenceless after the weapons inherited from the higher technique of Capitalism had worn out? </p>
<BR /><BR /><span style="font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif, Helvetica, Arial;"></span>
<p>This is one possibility. But there are others. It might so happen that some nations would remain socialistic while others returned to Capitalism. Then
the<u>socialist countries alone would proceed towards social decline. The capitalist countries would progress to a higher development of the division</u>
of labour until at last, driven<B>by the fundamental social law to draw the greatest number of human beings into the personal</B>division of labour, and
the whole earth’s surface into the geographical division of labour, they would impose culture upon the backward nations or destroy them if they
resisted. This has always been the historical fate of nations who have eschewed the road of capitalist development or who have halted prematurely </p>

<p align="left" style="font: 16px;">upon it. It may be that we exaggerate enormously the importance of the present day socialist movement. Perhaps it has no more significance than the outbreaks
against private property in the medieval persecution of the Jews, in the Franciscan movement, or in the Reformation period. And the Bolshevism of
Lenin and Trotsky is possibly no more important than Knipperdolling’s and Bockelson’s39 anabaptist rule in Münster; it is no greater in proportion to
the latter than is modern Capitalism in proportion to the Capitalism of the sixteenth century. Just as civilization overcame those attacks so it may .</p>
