Migration and Commonwealth Defence
Second of two talks by Sir Norman Angell
In his first talk Sir Norman argued that a new unit of economic and political power is needed in the West today to offset the preponderance of America. In this talk he explains his belief that the factors that led to the emergence of American power-a policy of free immigration and political federation-can operate with equal effect in the British Commonwealth, where this necessary balancing power is latent today. Crucial to this development is the removal of many of the present-day restrictions on freedom of movement.
