To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
deliberate, to arrest the natural social movement which the unfettered action of interests — social in the special sense, racial, economic, religious, scientific, in all variations — constantly promotes. Every new group of population has to take a dependent and subordinate place in the settled order, unless it is strong enough to be itself the sub- jugator of the older groups. This is the essential history of the caste system in Egypt and India. This intrenchment of the military stratification ...within impossible barriers of tradition prevents the subjugated groups from making themselves felt as factors in social struggle. It thereby prevents the social order from becoming flexible as a result of natural play of interests. In general, the despotic State, true to its subjugating instincts, uses every means to make its original form permanent. To the dominant element this seems to be the only way of securing what is held to be the foundation of sdcial weal. The world over, those who have power imagine that retention of power by their class is necessary to the stability of society in general.
