Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the history, present-day popularity, and various forms of pacifism. The author begins by defining pacifism as a philosophy and program which places emphasis on moral influence rather than violence, aiming to achieve its goals gently and through reason alone. The book explores varying degrees of pacifism, from those who reject violence in individual action to those who condemn its use against non-Christians, and ultimately to those who refuse to fight in any war. The author concludes by discussing the significance of the non-resistant pacifist movement, the role of international law in preventing war, and the importance of establishing a world court and a union of nations to ensure lasting peace. This book provides valuable insights into the history and practice of pacifism, offering a comprehensive overview of the movement and its significance in the pursuit of world peace.
