This is a description of the existing relations between British government and the industrial system. The present tendencies are shown to indicate the formation of an organized “economic” community, based upon the State organization but distinct from it. The dominant conception operating in this economic community is that of public service. The theory expressed in the book, however, is subordinated to a description of actual facts—the administrative treatment of labour conditions, unemployment, commerce and finance, which will be found valuable even by those who do not agree with the theory, since the description is the only one which covers contemporary post-war administration.

These chapters discuss the revelations and describe the new ideals that are struggling to get themselves realized in the new Industry, the new State, and the new World-Order.
