Hugo Munsterberg lr, quoted from
an article in Current History with
much approval by W. C. Owen the
anarchist editor of the English sec
tion of Regeneration, a Mexican re
volutionary paper.
Munsterberg in that article con
tends that the fundamentals of the
struggle in Huorpe consist in the
struggle betwoen individualism as
represented by Anglo-Saxon countries
and the “over-individualism” of the
Teuton nations. Munsterberg’s
words are:
“The fundamental issuo has often
been shown this year of excited dis
cussions. If all the misunderstand
ings and the wilful distortions be
disregarded and the pitiful declama
tions about Treitschke and Nietzsche
be set aside, the real differences
come clearly to light—the Anglo
Saxon system is controlled by the
belief in the individual as such, auc
the Teutonic ideals are bound by the
belief in the over-individual soul.
Tiie mere fact, however, that the
government of Germany has em
barked upon many enterprises of so
cial importance end acquired direct
control of various Industrial activi
ties is the sole foundation l'nr this
interpretation by the Professor of
Psychology, and because individual
istic capitalists pursue exploitation t
the nethermost limits of such ox
ploitativeness upon the plea of per
sonal liberty in England and in th
Unitod States, with an obviously un
social and highly immoral disregard
of the social results, it is taken thai
individualism is the keynote of those
civilizations, and so, bitterly and per
il-vnontly and fundamentally at issue
with the Teuton concept of national
culture.
Social discuccion of this sort re
v -.1 to us one certain feet and that
is that those who have persuaded
tl on selves that they arc rid of the
u.-eloss impedimenta of metaphysical
rubbish “thinkers” of past days were
went to pack, still load upon their
shoulders tha same mystical and un
into'ligible interpretation of social
phenomena, dogmatizing with the
cheerful and infallible imbecility of
a:t oschatologist of the Middle Ages.
In Germany, in England and in
the United States we may and do
noi.o certain characteristics in the
scheme of industrial and political
things that appoar broadly speaking
antagonistic; but wo also s -e all ot
tli so systems mooting upon the oom
m.tn plain: the exploitation of the
labor Of the proportiiess by those
who own the machinery of produc
tion and distribution, and all using
any and every means to prolong
and maintain ti nt system.
That government ownership should
be. favored more in Germany is not
du? to any cultural tendency in
herent in the German people, it has
a much simpler and much loss ms
taphysical origin. The German iu
du.-,trial development began long
the British capitalistic devel
opment had reached its zenith. Gov
ernment ownership, government di
rection and government assistance
be line essential to the fast devel
opment and forced growth of that in
dustrial system. There was no room
to build up in time such an elabo
rate system of individual exploita
tiou as prevailed in England with
political, judicial and industrial fac
tors all adjusted to the remoter eco
nomic growth of that country. And
the foster parentage by the German
gov srnment of German industries lias
for that reason become quite a3 es
sential as is the heat of a green
house necessary to the forced
growth of a semi-tropical plant in a
temperate clime. That this is cor
rect we have only to turn to the de
velopmeut of other and later indus
trial systems to confirm. Thus in
Japan where the wonderful industri
al achievements have been the admi
ration of quite a few writers, w;
have government care, ownersbii
and aid carried to an even greater
extreme than in Germany and it
would be just as ridiculous to attri
bute this to some such over-individ
ualist scheme of national culture as
to attribute the precisely similar
methods employed in a strictly
Anglo-Saxon community like the
Common wealth of Australia or New
Zealand to a later and somewhat mo
dified adaptation of the English
fetish of individual freedom,
j The struggle in Europe is econom
ic, not psychological. The British
capitalist was slowly bending before
j the more efficient forces of the Ger
man state aided enterprises.
| Society is in a state of conflicting
but constant transition. The stand
ards of liberty, of industrial achicve
i ment, of education, technology, in
stitutional progress, social morality
and ideals of one sort or another are
constantly changing and they change
in different degrees in different
countries. That they differ in kind
may be assumed, but cannot be
properly proved. The standards ot
culture that the various nations ai
[tain will vary as the economic re
quirements of those in control vary.
They do not affect the economic re
quirements; they are effects of those
requirements.
When men observe, therefore,
from time to time varying degress of
' say individual freedom in different
countries and discuss and theorize
thereabout it as men so often do,
they overlook the fact that that too
is merely an effect of the social eco
nomy or the social environment
which the individual or society as an
j agglomeration of indviduals faces al
ways.
That two distinct civilizations with
two distinct ideals are possible u
be founded upon the same economic
system is a fallacy born of a misin
terpretation of those distinguishing
facts relating to the development
and progress of the same system
within different countries: different
facts denoting the different phases
of such social and economic de
velopment merely.
Germany’s economic development
is now in the van of modern VI viliza
i tion and for that reason Germany
displays for us certain facts whicti
are characteristic of its position in
this specific regard.
And on the other hand the British
industrial scheme, which is strictly
| individualistic, has been compelled
I to fight in alliance with still more
| backward developments, in order to
arrest the progress of a nation su
| premely efficient because socially
more advanced.
Germany’s national reach from a
'state of individualistic self contained
j development, slow and uncertain tc
'state socialism In many ways, is a
leap which the imperative demand
of a capitalistic economy forced upon
the nafon because of the circum
stances of its position, just as Japan
; was compelled to such a leap by its
' so recent national acceptance of thf
economy of the west.
But in these countries where Mini
sterberg discovers a belief in the
over Individual soul, we, in a more
' matter of fact way, will discove;
: only too plainly the same system ol
' exploitation, the same system ol
class distinctions, the same suppres
■ sion or perversion of the ego of th<
masses, the seme hampering rules
1 as to caste which prevail in those
j lands where individualism runs rio1
when, and only when, it is carrier
to its unlicensed limits in the name
i of Toil Capitalism. That here 01
there efforts that seem social, a:
'contrasted with individual mark the
! progress of German industria
j achievement is due to the nocossitiei
’ of the situation which called for i
! maximum of efficiency and thorough
ness in a more recent rival of oldei
[established industrial empires.
