2. British Politics in the Seventies
From The Cambridge Union
Are the problems of the 1970s likely to bring a revision of the basic political structure of Britain. and if so, what sort of revision? This includes the relationship to Parliament of the political process; the survivability of the two-party system; and the relationship between the centre and the regions in the distribution of powers of government.

2: Two-legged Houyhnhnms
Mr. Lerner examines the work of Benjamin Constant, Racine, and Swift. He argues that ' All his life, Swift was haunted by the question whether man was a rational creature, or merely ralionis capax, capable of reason. We see now that this was not his problem only, but that of his ate.'
