ABSTRACT

The policy which definitely aims at expanding the British Empire BO 8S to cover all ne,,· areas of British economic interest cannot. 01 course, be consistently llursued. For the strongest farins of international capitalislll consist of investments in powerful civilised states with which llQ interference upon such grounds· is possible. The

propert~· and investJuents held by British subjects in the United States, in :Franc~ or in Gel'Juany, though the~· are economic forcps Jnaking towards a true infol'lnal politi(~al intflrnationalisln, cannot be regarded as Dlakillg for political fusion of t.he countries.
