What reading level is How Shall Our New Possessions Be Governed book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The average Russian peasant is a political baby. What he needs is indus- trial opportunity ; what he needs is the stimulation that diversified industries and more complex edu cational and social experience: can give. Out of that will grov a natural demand for more free dom in the different lines o: government, and social life. Th( surest sign that the Russiar people are not ready for any con siderable concession of politica power is the fact that they hav( never asked for it; they have never in...dicated in any way tha- they were suffering for the warn of it ; that they had ideas of how to use it ; that they had interestJ to be promoted by political powei if they had it. Until that time comes, until the indication oi political hunger shows itself, ex- pansion of political power mighl be a dangerous mistake. In England, which represents the highest freedom in monarch- ical institutions, a Czar would be utterly irksome and oppressive, — nay, he would be impossible. Revolution would dispossess any king or potentate who should as- suriie to exercise despotic author- ity.
