[ROBERT REDSLOB. “DEPENDENT COUNTRIES”]

To be used for comparing economic imperialism with political self‑determination.
Dr. Robert Redslob: “Dependent Countries” (An Analysis of the Concept of Original Sovereign Authority). Leipzig, 1914 (352 pages)**.
A purely juridical treatise. A study of the state‑legal status of:
Alsace–Lorraine,
Finland,
Bosnia,
* Canada,
* Australia,
* South Africa—
all presented solely through legal analysis.
A glance at certain chapters reveals that the author cites fascinating passages from colonial statutes, demonstrating a gradual expansion of freedom within these British colonies, approaching, in many respects, the status of fully independent nations. Yet, as the author insists, they remain dependent; though the path toward full sovereignty is clearly discernible, they do not yet possess complete freedom…
They speak freely of secession.
They agree with England on matters of legislation.

[ROBERT REDSLOB. “DEPENDENT COUNTRIES”]
Dr. Robert Redslob: “Dependent Countries” (An Analysis of the Concept of Original Supreme Authority). Leipzig, 1914 (352 pages)**.
A purely juridical treatise. A study of the state‑legal status of:
Alsace–Lorraine,
Finland—
and, above all, South Africa—
all examined exclusively through legal analysis.
A review of select chapters reveals that the author offers compelling quotations from colonial statutes, illustrating how the degree of freedom in these British colonies has steadily increased, coming ever closer to the status of free nations. Nevertheless, the author emphasizes that these territories remain dependent; while the trajectory toward full independence is unmistakably evident, they have not yet attained complete freedom…
They speak freely of secession.
They agree with England on matters of legislation…
The trend is toward a federated union of free states. The author concludes that England has already granted parliamentary government—and now seeks to combine it with the “organization of a confederal state” (p. 347). The South African Parliament, he notes, possesses the power to alter territorial boundaries.

and South Africa—
