Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World Peace and After We witness now the initial stages of that revolution. The world war has long since ceased to be only a war between rival groups of states; it is a conflict of ideals. It has become a war of classes; war between the rights of persons and the rights of property. The powerful and propertied minorities the world over are being drawn together in a contest of survival waged with the masses, which, strong in numbers, are weak in organization, in leaders, in the tradition of authority, and have little control of the political and industrial machinery which has hitherto ruled the world. We are witness to the incipient stages of the last and greatest revolution, that by which the masses seek to wrest power from the bourgeoisie. Other revolutions in history have exacted power from kings and placed it in the hands of the nobility. These in turn have been largely merged with the commercial classes, and political and social power has shifted to the hands of those who control the wealth of the world. The revolution whose initial tremors we now discern but which may not be completed in our time is that which seeks to effect a still wider distribution of power: to place it truly where before it has been but ostensibly, in the hands of the people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and World Peace The world war is over. The legacy of war remains. The whirlwind Of death which left nothing it could destroy is passed, but ex hansted nations look with horror on the destruction wrought and turn with nerveless hands to the work of restoration. Has the war paid? That depends. If the transform ing ideals which inspired the will to conquer shall fade away, if the determination to rid the world of evil heritages and to give it a new start in freedom Shall be swallowed up in the maws of selfish interests; if, after all that has been done, nothing is left, after a while, but the same old world of international strife, a world of stark-naked materialism in which ancient wrongs, forgetfulness of God, and deification of the Strong, Shall again blur justice and the sense of human brotherhood, then the war has not paid.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Fourth Year: Anticipations of a World Peace In the latter half of 1914 a few of us were writing that this war was a "War of Ideas." A phrase, "The War to end War," got into circulation, amidst much sceptical comment. It was a phrase powerful enough to sway many men, essentially pacifists, towards taking an active part in the war against German imperialism, but it was a phrase whose chief content was its aspiration. People were already writing in those early days of disarmament and of the abolition of the armament industry throughout the world; they realized fully the element of industrial belligerency behind the shining armour of imperialism, and they denounced the "Krupp-Kaiser" alliance. But against such writing and such thought we had to count, in those days, great and powerful realities. Even to those who expressed these ideas there lay visibly upon them the shadow of impracticability; they were very "advanced" ideas in 1914, very Utopian. Against them was an unbroken mass of mental habit and public tradition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Since Then: The Disturbing Story of the World at Peace That struggle for peace, which now seems assured for a fair spell of human progress, unless the world goes mad again, is one of the forward movements of humanity, and the recovery of Europe from all that ruin that was left by the war is almost miraculous. It is half-forgotten history now, although so recent. Most of it is blurred in a vague remembrance. It is indeed extraordinarily difficult to get at the facts and dates and to find a connected narrative of episodes which were smothered at the time in newspaper reports or never told. Yet one ought not to forget that passionate history which changed the minds of men and women and led to a new era of world thought strangely divorced from the recent past.

Download or read book World Peace Through Law written by James Taylor Ranney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the history and future of the concept of ‘world peace through law’ (WPTL), which advocates replacing the use of international force with the global rule of law. WPTL calls for replacing war with the global rule of law by arms reductions, including the abolition of nuclear weapons, global alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, and various enforcement mechanisms. This book sets forth a three-part proposal: 1) arms reductions – primarily the abolition of nuclear weapons, with necessarily concomitant reductions in conventional forces; 2) a four-stage system of global alternative dispute resolution (ADR), utilizing both law and equity; 3) adequate enforcement mechanisms, including a UN Peace Force. The core of this proposal is alternative dispute resolution mechanisms—international ADR. International ADR would consist of a four-stage process of compulsory negotiation, compulsory mediation, compulsory arbitration., and compulsory adjudication by the World Court. The fundamental proposition of this book is that the use of alternatives to war, global ADR, is the ultimate solution to the problem of peace. The full implementation of WPTL will entail a vast array of progressive initiatives on many fronts, including abolition of nuclear weapons, with the global rule of law being the capstone to all of these developments. This book will be of great interest to students of peace studies, arms control, international law, and world politics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from World Peace, or Principles of International Law in Their Application to Efforts for the Preservation of the Peace of the World But events are moving rapidly. The great epoch producing period has not passed, and it will not have passed until the questions of an attempt at permanent peace and of reconstrue tion are settled, and events will move rapidly until that time, not fast enough to please some, but possibly too fast to insure the permanence of the settlement that shall be attained. When it became apparent that the American people were going to be called upon, either through the right of petition or at the polls, to express themselves upon the question of a pro posed constitution for a League of Nations I was an earnest advocate of the belief that every person should study such questions and that all who had given such study serious con sideration should express themselves to the end that any action on the part of the people would be the result of thought and delibera tion.

In speak ing of the prevailing conditions in China, I have, in the past, endeavored to express myself with re serve. But I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the time has come when the world should be informed of the true situation. There is no use in evading the fact that China is utterly incapable of managing her own affairs, and that the civilized nations of the world must come to an agreement with a View to establishing an international guardianship for China.

Download or read book An International Police written by Robert Stein and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An International Police: To Guarantee the World's Peace From all sides comes the cry: "Let us be active. What is the good of having a peace society unless it does something?" Exactly. What is the good of having a fire brigade unless it puts out the fires? But what would you think of a fire brigade that would limit its activity to holding monthly meetings to listen to reports on the damage done by fire and to ask in astonishment why that damage was allowed to continue? Would you call such a fire brigade active? An active fire brigade is one which gets hold of a fire-engine and throws water on the fire. The fire of militarism which devours 2,000 million dollars of our good money every year is caused by a number of burning questions. You would think that the foremost aim of every active peace society would be to quench those burning questions. Yet those of you who are familiar with the peace movement will bear me out in the statement that to a large extent the rule deliberately adopted by peace societies is: "Stick to generalities and avoid specific measures. Leave the burning questions to the healing virtue of time." In other words: "Sit around the fire and wail, but for heaven's sake don't throw on a drop of water!" If nothing else can be done, even that kind of activity is of course better than none at all. Nor can it be denied that, so long as the public discussion of burning questions would merely fan the flame, the attitude of the peace societies is wise.
