| The bourgeoisie has through its exploitation of the world-market given a cosmopolitan character to production and consumption in every country. It must not be forgotten that London has not the backing of great industrial districts or great fields of natural exploitation. Their method of economic exploitation indeed impresses a trained and informed mind as the most frantic and destructive scramble it is possible to conceive; their credit and monetary system resting on an unsubstantial tradition of the worthiness of gold, seems a thing almost fantastically unstable. |
