Note 28 — Chapter III · THE ITALIAN SCHOOL.1
Henry P. (Henry Pomeroy) Horton translation
“2. Since the social evolution has its own logic, independent of any direct influence from the natural environment, it may happen that a people, though inhabiting the same land and retaining almost the same physical peculiarities, may have at different epochs of its history social and political institutions which are very little similar, or even totally different one from another.”28
