Sinopsis
Excerpt from Some Ethical Questions of Peace and War, With Special: Reference to Ireland
Of my forbears, moreover, none, as far as I can learn, ever took service of any kind under the English, or got any special favour from them. Whatever pay they received was the price of farm produce; and came ultimately, to them as to their neighbours, then as now, from Britain. In that sense I was brought up on British gold, and should deem it shame not to recognise the Obligation. Otherwise I owe England nothing, except fair play; nor have I the least hope, or desire, of any special favour from her.

Excerpt from Some Ethical Questions of Peace and War, With Special: Reference to Ireland
Most of the questions raised in this little book are new; at least in the sense that, as far as I know, they have not been dealt with hitherto in scientific fashion and on Catholic lines. We are not, however, left without guidance, of general principles; which need to be applied with caution to cases undreamt of, or certainly not investigated, by our fathers in the schools.
This has been attempted of late, in some cases; I doubt whether with sufficient detachment. The atmosphere is too full of passion, and will be for long. Our successors will see more clearly; and will make, for all sides, allowances too generous for such as have lived through these last dreadful years.
And yet, as the whole world is talking of these questions, the Catholic schools of ethics should not ignore them. Not that on any of them one can hope to say the last word; but that, surveying them from different angles, one may direct attention to aspects that might be overlooked, and so contribute to a fuller view and a more equitable decision.

Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores ethical considerations of peace and war with particular focus on Ireland. The author questions whether Ireland was ever a united and fully independent nation and delves into the history of Irish acquiescence in loss of independence. The author posits that loss of independence without acquiescence can never be justified. The book contributes to the ongoing debate on Irish sovereignty and the role of ethics in international relations. It challenges traditional views on nationhood, conquest, and prescription and offers a fresh perspective on the complex relationship between Ireland and Britain. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
