Jaures, Jean Leon. Studies in socialism; tr. with an introd. by Mildred Minturn. **$1. Putnam.

“The growing strength of socialism on both continents gives even its internal discussions of theory and tactics a general interest.... These ‘studies in socialism,’ present a well-rounded exposition of the French leader’s views.... The four papers in the first section ‘Socialism and life,’ show us the aggressive and fundamentally revolutionary Collectivist.... Those in the second and longer section, entitled ‘Revolutionary evolution,’ deal with questions of Socialist method. Some of them have now only a historical interest; others, especially those in which the writer combats the semi-Anarchistic ideals of the anti-Parliamentary socialists, the advocates of the general strike, are as timely now as when they were written in 1901.”—Ind.
