Exploring the road to a safer world after World War I. This analysis examines what went wrong in foreign policy, the costs of war, and how the League of Nations could change the course of history for nations and people alike.
The author surveys key moments, choices, and consequences from the postwar era. It argues for a shift from wartime mindsets to peaceful cooperation, and it outlines the Covenant’s ideas for preventing future wars through transparency, arbitration, and collective security. The book weighs the responsibilities of leaders, the actions of governments, and the hope that a united international order can offer real remedies for oppression and conflict.
- How war reshaped politics and the moral climate of nations
- The role and limits of the League of Nations in safeguarding peace
- Mechanisms like mandates, labour standards, and arbitration that aim to prevent future wars
- The tension between national interests and global cooperation, and what true leadership would require
Ideal for readers of history and international affairs who want a clear view of the era’s pressing questions and the proposed remedies for lasting peace.
