Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government and the War The reader who has followed me thus far can see for himself whether I have described the situation as it really is. I know that many people will not face it. It seems to them too awful. They would rather shut their eyes and build castles in the air labelled 'after the War.' That seems to me the unconscious hypocrisy of despair. I have faith in my country men. Nay, more, I have faith in the French and I have faith in the Italians. But it is for my own countrymen that I am writing. I am sure that they feel with me and that they want to know the worst and to do the best. All that is required is a lead.

This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Government of the British Dominions IN the autumn of 1914 when the scientific study of the effects 5 of war upon modern life passed suddenly from theory to history, the Division of Economics and History of the Carnegie Endow ment for International Peace proposed to adjust the programme of its researches to the new and altered problems which the War presented. The existing programme, which had been prepared as the result of a conference of economists held at Berne in 1911, and which dealt with the facts then at hand, had just begun to show the quality of its contributions; but for many reasons it could no longer be followed out. A plan was therefore drawn up at the request of the Director of the Division, in which it was proposed by means of an historical survey, to attempt to measure the economic cost of the War and the displacement which it was causing in the processes of civilization. Such an Economic and Social History of the World War', it was felt, if undertaken by men of judicial temper and adequate training, might ultimately, by reason of its scientific obligations to truth, furnish data for the forming of sound public Opinion, and thus contribute fundamentally toward the aims of an institution dedicated to the cause of international peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nations at War Men thought there would be no war because International Socialism would reduce the belligerent governments to impotence. For years the world had been told that the cause of labor was international, that the workingman's struggle against capitalism was the same in France as in Germany, in Italy as in Austria. With this greater warfare in progress, involving the well-being of the workingmen of all the world, no working man would be deluded into taking up arms against his fellows who happened to speak a different tongue or render fealty to a foreign state.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War: Its Causes and Consequences The age is revolutionary. The present is an epoch in the world's history of transition - a sort of moral exodus of the nations - which has lasted now some three centuries; and no stability in governments anywhere, much less here, can be looked for until the passage from the old regime to the new has been completed. To a close observer, the social ebullition in this coun try has long been of a threatening character. From the birth of our government, its elements have been in an uneasy state; and the bosom of society has more than once been agitated by the throes of coming convulsions. The time has arrived for these inevitable disturbances, so long concealed, to manifest their dangerous activity. An open rupture is at last reached; and however it may be allayed temporarily, will be again and again renewed until the foundations of society are broken up, or the principles which now lie at its base are extruded, or so modified by the introduction of others that their excesses will be entirely counteracted.

Download or read book China and the World War Classic Reprint written by William Reginald Wheeler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China and the World-War After the war, the attention of the world will more and more shift to China and the Far East. The greatest potential market of the world lies there: the greatest need for industrial and economic develop ment is there. The Far East, in general, and China, in particular, have been profoundly affected by the war: they will be even more deeply influenced during the peace which is to follow. All of the great powers have financial interests in China; after the war, these interests will come into sharp competition and rivalry. In their relations with China and with each other, the nations will face two alternatives: on the one hand, a policy leading to an imperialism and oppression which eventually will endanger the dearly-bought world peace: on the other, a course of action based on inter national justice and the development of a democracy in the Far East that will be safe for the world. These alternatives in Asia are, and will be, the same as those which the world is facing in Europe today: the writer believes they should be viewed in the light of the principles for which the larger part of mankind is now fighting and that unless this is done, on the Eastern horizon will surely gather the dark clouds of another world-storm.

It comes perilously near a betrayal of our own interests. In his laudable anxiety to make himself acceptable as a mediator to England, and especially to Germany, President Wilson loses sight of the fact that his first duty is to the United States; and, moreover, desirable though it is that his conduct should commend him to Germany, to England, and to the other great contending powers, he should not for this reason forget the interests of the small nations, and above all of Belgium, whose grati tude can never mean anything tangible to him or to us, but which has suffered a wrong that in any peace negotiations it Should be our first duty to see remedied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy Versus Autocracy: A Comparative Study of Governments in the World War When President Wilson gave expression to the now famous phrase, We are fighting to make the world safe for democracy, he uttered a profound truth. He saw in the conflict in which America is engaged in association with the Allies, a struggle between two political ideals; these two ideals, when expressed in form and practice of government, are in their nature either monarchic or democratic. The one ideal is accepted by Germany; the other by the United States; the one means a government imposed from above; the other a government by the consent of the governed; the one means an irresponsible autocracy; the other a government responsible to the people a democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our War With Germany: A History The participation of the United States in the great war is one of the rare historical events that give direction to the prog ress of the world. The self-governing states of Europe were struggling for life and the greatest republic in the world went to their assistance at the critical moment. A century ago the American people first proved that republican government can succeed in a first rate nation. It was as fitting as essential that they should have interfered to preserve it in time of danger. It is in this sense that the future historian will make up his opinion of our part in the great struggle. When the passions of the day subside, the American people will come to this view of the subject. They will not ask very closely about the errors committed in the conduct of the war, but they will wish to know what the world crisis was, how the nation as a nation met it, and how the people now living adjusted themselves to the problems growing out of the war when it was won.

Download or read book The Responsibility for the Great War Classic Reprint written by Laurence M. Larson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Responsibility for the Great War In the summer of 1914, when the Great War suddenly broke upon Europe, there was much perplexity and confusion of thought among neutral observers. Signs of a coming test of strength had been plentiful, but thus far they had proved false: diplomatic "crises" had been successfully handled; sabers had rattled but had remained in the sheath; "storm clouds" had failed to break. And now, almost without warning, the most malignant forces of civilization were loosened and the world war was a fact. There was nothing in the European situation of that year that should "inevitably" have led to war. Armed conflicts usually come when statesmen, diplomats, and the controlling classes lack wisdom in dealing with real crises or when the ruling elements actually desire war. Justice sometimes demands warfare, but in 1914 justice was evidently not active in the councils of Central Europe. Neutral observers were soon in fair agreement that in August of that year a crime had been committed - the greatest crime in all the ages. In their search for the criminal they received but slight help from the belligerent patties; all tried to load the responsibility for the war on the backs of their opponents. Soon after the outbreak, Count Andrassy, an eminent Hungarian statesman, in a book entitled "Whose Sin is the World War," placed the blame on Russia; England and France were responsible in a lesser degree. The Germans, however, were unwilling to accept Andrassy's dictum; they regarded England as the chief criminal and called fervently on the Almighty to join in punishing that wicked state. England in her turn found the responsibility in Berlin and poured forth her wrath upon the Kaiser as the symbol of Prussian power and perfidy. Before many months the neutral world had come to feel that the burden of responsibility must ultimately be placed on one of these two powers, England or Germany. And, as the war developed, a constantly growing number came to feel that the guilt must be charged to the German government.
