Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Turn Toward Peace' is a compelling exploration of the global movement for international harmony during the pivotal interwar period. Written by Florence Brewer Boeckel, a prominent advocate for peace, this work examines the social, political, and ethical shifts necessary to transition from a world defined by conflict to one rooted in cooperation. Published at a time when the memories of the Great War remained vivid, the book serves as both a roadmap for disarmament and a call for a new international consciousness.Through a series of insightful chapters, Boeckel analyzes the roles of various institutions-ranging from schools and churches to governments-in fostering a culture of peace. She addresses the complexities of international law, the economic foundations of war, and the power of public opinion in steering the course of history. 'The Turn Toward Peace' offers a unique window into the optimism and strategic thinking of early 20th-century pacifism, highlighting the enduring struggle for global stability.This work remains a significant historical document for readers interested in the history of the peace movement, political science, and the evolving nature of international relations.
