Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Philosophy of Government and Its Effect on International Relations So long as the people of each nation remained unenlightened and were without full power to express their ideas through representative institutions, the war-game of the balance of power ruled international politics, and international disputes were disputes concerning the rights of nations, and particularly on points of national honor. The citizens of each nation had only partial and indefinite rights at home, and citizens of one nation had no rights in another nation or against a foreign government. A person abroad had only certain privileges, and these usually were based on treaty. Breaches of treaty were considered to involve the national honor not of the nation breaking the treaty, but of the other nation, and led to war or to a new disposition of alliances according to the rules of the war-game.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from International Relations The relations of nations and Of people to each other are de termined by the sum total of human progress and of the ideals which lead men to happier lives and more useful activities. In the march of civilization law-makers of necessity follow rather than lead. The great inventions which arouse the imagination are the pioneers. The mariner's compass pointed the way over the unknown seas and gave assurance that whatever course was taken might be retraced. To it and the spirit of adventure it aroused the world owes the conversion of the ocean from an impassable barrier, separating the continents into different worlds, to a great universal thoroughfare connecting every port of every land with every other port. Following the dis covery of America and the settlement of Europeans along its coasts came colonial problems to the statesmen of Europe and the necessity of changing their theories of rulership by arbi trary force for a system affording the people of the colonies some measure of liberty in the regulation of their affairs. With no means of communication between the two continents but sailing vessels, there was such partial isolation as induced the growth of new customs, modes of life and ideas of social te lations. In time these became so distinct and firmly established that the colonists would not submit to the ill-advised measures of the governments of the parent countries. The result was political separation and the organization in the western hemi sphere oi republican governments now numbering twenty-one.

This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of International Government IN view of American discussion of the League of Nations, beginning with President Wilson's labors in setting up its machinery and the persistent effort which is still being made to induce this country to enter the League, it is both timely and pertinent to consider the historical aspect of the question. The present study of international government is not a plea for or against the present League of Nations per se, but is, as its name implies, an analysis of the efforts at government between and among nations since the dawn of civilization. Its pages endeavor to trace international govern ment from primitive to modern society, bringing out its connection with the present world move ments of nationalism, imperialism, and internation alism. It shows, for example, how the Papacy during the Middle Ages approached a form of inter national government and how modern history has brought a gradual development along the legislative, executive and judicial lines. The historical portions are followed by an analysis of the constitution and achievements of the actual League, and, last of all, by a consideration of its specific problems in the light of economics, biology and social psychology.

This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Few Thoughts on the Foreign Policy of the United States Among the principalities and powers of history, few attract a steadier interest than the Great Republics, which in the grave etiquette of the old diplomacy, were entitled to royal honors. In the action of the past, few move with a statelier step than the magnificent merchants of Venice, and the grave Burghers of the Netherlands. These ministers of mighty Commonwealths, clothed with what in former days might well be called the reverence of office, fronted royal pomp with the ease of high equality; an equality which as portion of the republic they felt to be personal. Combining the shrewd wisdom of business, with the elevation of national consequence, they mingled in the great affairs of the world as advisers or as arbiters. And yet what was the greatest of these republics; nay, what were they all? Venice with its thousand argosies; Netherlands with its accumulated wealth; Switzerland with its stubborn freedom, compared with the Commonwealth of the West. A Government sound - simple - and secure - thirty millions of people strong in arms and all practical arts - intelligent - active and free as no people have ever yet been.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States and Foreign Powers The diplomatic history of the United States is a record of which any nation might be proud. Without a corps of trained diplomatists like those to Whom the management of the foreign relations of the European governments are in trusted, Without an army or a navy to enforce its claims, and With only a sense of justice and a consciousness of right, this country has succeeded through 0a century in maintaining its dignity and protecting its national honor. From the skillful and patient endeavors of Franklin, Adams, and Jefferson to secure the respect and recognition of the greater powers of the world for the feeble colonies then struggling for independence, to the able and courageous efforts of the present administration to protect the fisheries and sealing grounds of our citizens, it is a record of peace ful victories. There have been some incidents like those which led to the Mexican War, and the recent legislation against the Chinese, concerning which there may be a difference of Opinion; but as a Whole the influence of Ameri can diplomacy has had a Wholesome and permanent effect upon the other nations of the world.

Download or read book Studies National and International Classic Reprint written by James Lorimer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies National and International These "Studies" were revised by the author himself, shortly before his death, with a view to their publication. They formed the subject of much thought and discussion, and were written with great care and deliberation, usually in the autumn vacation previous to their delivery. They originated in his custom of spending the first hour of the session, when the attention of the students could not well be concentrated on more special subjects of study, "in discussing in a popular manner what seemed to be the leading public question or public event of the day." As the questions raised and the events discussed in these studies are still of vital interest, it is believed that the author's earnest hope was not unwarranted that they might prove useful and suggestive, not only to law-students, but to practical politicians and to thoughtful readers generally. They have not had the benefit of the author's final revision, but the proof-sheets have been carefully read by Mr. John Kirkpatrick, Professor of History in the University of Edinburgh, who has given much valuable aid in preparing the volume for publication. The Biographical Notices were written shortly after the author's death by one of his colleagues in the University and one of his confreres in the Institute of International Law respectively. The portrait which forms the frontispiece was painted by his son a few months before his death. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book International Politics Classic Reprint written by Cecil Delisle Burns and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from International Politics It is outside the province of an introductory study to offer solutions of political problems and, therefore, the whole book is a statement of fact and an expression of doubt rather than the exposition of a doctrine, programme or policy. The need of the general public and even of some statesmen appears to be not so much the inculcation of a gospel as instruction in an alphabet: for ignorance of facts, not ill-will, appears to be the greatest obstacle to progress in regard to international affairs. This, however, does not imply that -the book is intended to be quite colourless as regards the solution of the problems described. A certain ve definite attitude has been adopted; and certain very efinite conclusions are implied in regard to some issues. For example, it is quite clearly supposed that the interest of all nations is not to be found by the ancient process of each seeking its own and it is implied, without adequate evidence offered here because the evidence is regarded as obvious, that war is an altogether evil institution and a useless political method. Even such assumptions and conclusions need not be accepted by the reader. They are mentioned in this preface simply in order that the reader may be on his guard for it is con siderably better that he should think for himself than that he should agree with the author of any book.

Download or read book National Character in Action written by Washington Platt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from National Character in Action: Intelligence Factors in Foreign Relations Nations differ in their national character as much as individuals differ in personal character. For success in international relations it is just as profitable, and indeed just as essential, to understand the character of the nation with which one is dealing as it is to understand the char acter of an individual in personal dealings. This maxim ap plies equally to friends, neutrals, and potential enemies. In all aspects of international relations and especially in the formulation and implementation of foreign policy, an intimate understanding of the character of other na tions must always be one of the vital factors in the situa tion - usually one of the first factors. Such understanding becomes part of almost every phase of foreign policy plan ning and execution. It is an essential element of any inter national problems, whether the genesis of the problem be military, diplomatic, economic, political, psychological or cultural. National character includes the predominant traits in the character of individuals within a nation, the effective character of influential groups, and finally the coalescence of individual and group desires when a people responds to a crisis as a nation. The term national character has been chosen for the title of this book because it is widely usedand generally understood. Its exact meaning is developed in the first few sections of the text and in Appendix A. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Countless practical difficulties are no doubt thus evaded which will need close discussion before any substantial progress along these lines can be realized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A League of Nations The war has called forth some good books on the future international organization Of the world, and others on the settlement Of the war itself TO my thinking, these two questions are a single problem which must be solved as a whole. The task which for us exceeds all others in importance, and must be made to include all others, is the making of conditions which promise security from further wars. The settlement of the national, colonial, and economic questions involved in this war, must be a settlement which will help the creation, and ensure the harmonious working Of a League of Nations founded to maintain peace. In this book I have tried to consider how far such a League Of Nations as President Wilson has proposed, can guarantee the security of Europe. Its success will depend, not merely on the wise drafting Of its constitution, but upon the solution reached in the war-settlement of our problem's of nationality, colonial expansion, international trade, sea-power, and alliances, I have groped in the following chapters for an answer to this question: Under what political and economic conditions would the creation of a League of Nations be a hopeful adventure?
