Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Monroe Doctrine and the war spirit prevailing in the United States at the end of the 19th century, specifically amidst the backdrop of potential war with Venezuela. It explores the complexities of American sentiment towards Latin America, highlighting the mix of sympathy for self-determination, a sense of destiny to protect the hemisphere, and economic self-interest. The author, a prominent ethical philosopher, argues that a spirit of war was growing in the country based on restless energy, impatience with equality, and a desire for excitement. The work also emphasizes that imperialism abroad often leads to corruption and undermines domestic liberty. Ultimately, the book urges Americans to use their power responsibly, through diplomatic means, international arbitration, and a commitment to peace.
