Sinopsis

Excerpt from International Relations: Eight Lectures Delivered in the United States in August, 1921

These lectures, addressed to an audience which, though it contained professors of history and public law from many universities, was mainly non-profes sioual, do not attempt to deal with the more intricate branches of the large subject covered by the term In ternational Relations. Now printed almost exactly as they were delivered three months ago, they treat of that subject only in a few of its broader aspects, and are directed to a practical aim which is at this mo ment much in the minds of thoughtful men every where. Painfully struck by the fact that while the economic relations between nations have been growing closer, and the personal intercourse between their mem bers far more frequent, political friendliness between States has not increased, such men have been asking Why ill feeling continues still so rife. Why is it that before the clouds of the Great War have vanished from the sky new clouds are rising over the horizon? What can be done to avert the dangers that are threatening the peace of mankind?
