War and the Liberal Conscience,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
For centuries liberal minded men have been horrified by the pain and waste of war. From Erasmus, who saw war above all as a product of stupidity, to the Marxists who see it as a matter of class conflict, they have produced social theories to account for its occurrence and have tried to devise means to end it.Their prescriptions have been various. The central view of the Enlightenment was that wars would end when the ambitions of princes could be curbed by the sanity of ordinary men. At first the commercial classes seemed to be the new force that would produce this happy state, but by the end of the nineteenth century they themselves (the capitalists) were being stigmatized as the instigators of war.Similarly, the nineteenthcentury liberals at first believed that the rise of the new independent nationstates of Europe would lead to a permanent peace as the wishes of the masses (naturally peaceloving) were able to express themselves. Again, the supposed agents of peace were soon seen as a prime cause of wars.Despite these contradictions there have been certain continuing themes in the search for a means to end wars, and one of the most enlightening things in this book is they way in which it is possible to see how these themes recur in subtly different forms in different periods of history. Professor Howard traces them from the renaissance to our own time, through the social, political and intellectual groups that gave birth to them.Throughout the whole story runs the continuing contrast between those who hoped to find a single cause for the disease, leading to a lasting cure, and those who understood that, in Professor Howards words, this was a task which needs to be tackled afresh every day of our lives...
