Chapter 9 - Moral Values in Politics
Powerful classes dominate politics
The moralist fails to see the injustice, coercion and inequalities which history sanctifies and tradition justifies.
Marxian philosophy is more true than pacifism in that it allows for discrimination between the purpose and ends for which coercion is used.
pacifism = non-cooperation = violence (not convincing)
Non-violent resistance, as distinct from pacifism, offers best harmony between moral and rational and greatest area of political participation for religion.
