Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jewish Problem, How to Solve It Why is it that liberalism has failed to eliminate the Ah ti-jewish prejudice? It is because the liberal movement has not yet brought full liberty. Enlightened countries grant to the individual equality before the law; but they fail still to recognize the equality of whole peoples or nationalities. We seek to protect as individuals those constituting a minority; but we fail to realize that protection cannot be complete um less group equality also is recognized. Deeply imbedded in every people is the desire for full development - the longing, as Mazzini phrased it to elaborate and express their idea, to contribute their stone also to the pyramid of history. Nationality like democracy has been one of the potent forces making for man's advance during the past hundred years. The assertion of nationality has infused whole peeples with hope, manhood and self-respect. It has ennobled and made purposeful millions of lives. It offered them a future, and in doing so revived and capitalized all that was valuable in their past. The assertion of nation ality raised Ireland from the slough of despondency. It roused Southern Slavs to heroic deeds. It created gallant Belgium. It freed Greece. It gave us united Italy. It man ifested itself even among free peoples - like the Welsh who had no grievance, but who gave expression to their nationality through the revival of the old Cymric tongue. Each of these peeples developed because, as Mazzini said, they were enabled to proclaim to the world that they also live, think, love and labor for the benefit of all.
