日本は何故、反省しないのか？

見方は。

Twenty years or so ago, when I was very young and the world was not yet uncomfortable a place as it has since become, I remember hearing a wise old gentlmen remark that the French revolution was a great mistake and that everyting that had happened since had only made it worse.

This view struck me then as a novel and shocking. It has since become almost a commonplace.

Edward Carr (The New Society)

どうもイギリス人はフランス革命に否定的なようで。エドモンド・バークしかり。トーマス・ペインはべつとして。
