Excerpt from Foundations of Democracy: A Series of Addresses The series of lectures contained in the present volume was given during the academic year 1944-1945. The design of the series grew out of some academic experimentation on the editor's part aimed at bringing into one perspective the sources and various expressions of the democratic idea embodied in Western culture. So many strands enter into the development of democracy, and its expression has so many facets that their adequate presentation requires the collabora tion of minds familiar with a variety of disciplines. It is true that the resulting symposium contains elements not fully reconcilable. Yet it is believed that each lecture presents an aspect of the theme which cannot be ignored if one would gain an understanding of democracy as a force in the world today. The preceding volumes in the series focused attention upon the problem of establishing a world order consistent with religious and moral principles which have common acceptance in our culture. The present volume has a less pragmatic purpose, directing attention rather to the exploration of our tradition in terms of its assumptions concerning the bases of human association. All three volumes deal with problems of democracy, but the one now appearing undertakes a more systematic exploration of democratic concepts.
