Excerpt from Anglo-Dutch Rivalry During the First Half of the Seventeenth Century: Being the Ford Lectures, Delivered at Oxford in 1910 The period with Which I am dealing was one of chartered companies, of trade monopolies, and of com mercial protection in its most aggressive form. Pro bably at that stage in the world's history no other economical system was conceivable or would have proved workable. In any case most of the disputes and differences between the English and the Dutch at this time arose from questions connected with trading privileges, and these lectures contain much concerning them. It is still, however, extremely interesting and not without instruction to read the arguments that were used and the principles that were upheld by these statesmen and diplomatists of former days. Economical questions are always with us, and men's opinions differ now as to their right solution as much as they did three centuries ago.
