Excerpt from The Crisis of Liberalism: New Issues of Democracy
The constitutional fracas caused by the invasion of the ancient privileges of the House of Commons by the House of Lords well serves to indicate, though by no means to comprehend, the crisis with which En lish Liberalism is confronted. No English Liberal o the ''seventies would have deemed it possible that so evidently obsolescent an organ of Government as the House of Lords should, within a single generation, have come to Show so vigorous a spirit of encroachment. Nor could it, had not Liberalism itself shown defects of vision and of urpose which sowed doubt and distraction amon its fol owers.
