First American Edition. 5 ¾” x 8 ¾”. Black title on olive boards. Cover shows mottling. Binding tight. Pages yellowed, but clean. Over-all in good to very good condition. Oakesmith investigates claim that nationality is based on race and the counterclaim that attempts to disprove the validity of all racial explanations and argues that it had annihilated nationality altogether. He says that he rejects both explanations altogether and attempts to find a source other than race that is the most pregnant fact of modern political evolution. His conclusion is in “what may formally be called the principle of ‘organic continuity of common interest’.” A telling discussion in the aftermath of WWI.
