Bøger af Norman Angell

Norman Angell's influential book on the relationship between arms and industry is as relevant today as it was when it was first published in 1913. Arguing that war is economically unproductive and ultimately harmful to nations' wealth, Angell persuasively makes the case for disarmament.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.

Arms and Industry: A Study of the Foundations of International Polity is a book written by Norman Angell and first published in 1914. The book examines the relationship between arms production and international relations, arguing that the arms industry is a major factor in the perpetuation of war and conflict. Angell argues that the economic interdependence of nations makes war irrational and counterproductive, and that the arms industry creates a self-perpetuating cycle of conflict. He also suggests that the arms race is fueled by a false belief that military strength is necessary for national security. The book was written in the years leading up to World War I, and its ideas were influential in the peace movement of the time. However, the outbreak of war in 1914 seemed to contradict Angell's arguments, and the book's reception was mixed. Despite this, Arms and Industry remains an important work in the study of international relations and the role of economic factors in shaping political outcomes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Peace Theories and the Balkan War is a classic Balkan War history text by Norman Angell that examines the Balkan wars in the years preceeding World War One. Whether we blame the belligerents or criticise the powers, or sit in sackcloth and ashes ourselves is absolutely of no consequence at the present moment.... We have sometimes been assured by persons who profess to know that the danger of war has become an illusion.... Well, here is a war which has broken out in spite of all that rulers and diplomatists could do to prevent it, a war in which the Press has had no part, a war which the whole force of the money power has been subtly and steadfastly directed to prevent, which has come upon us, not through the ignorance or credulity of the people, but, on the contrary, through their knowledge of their history and their destiny, and through their intense realisation of their wrongs and of their duties, as they conceived them, a war which from all these causes has burst upon us with all the force of a spontaneous explosion, and which in strife and destruction has carried all before it.

From 1258 onwards Bulgaria may be said to have continued flickering until its final extinction as a state in 1393, but during this period it never had any voice in controlling the destinies of the Balkan peninsula. Owing to the fact that no ruler emerged capable of keeping the distracted country in order, there was a regular chasse-croise of rival princelets, an unceasing tale of political marriages and murders, conspiracies and revolts of feudal nobles all over the country, and perpetual ebb and flow of the boundaries of the warring principalities which tore the fabric of Bulgaria to pieces amongst them.

This Is A New Release Of The Original 1913 Edition.

""The Great Illusion"" by Norman Angell is a thought-provoking study that challenges conventional beliefs about the benefits of military power and the pursuit of war. Angell argues that armed conflict and the quest for military dominance do not lead to lasting national advantage or economic prosperity.In this groundbreaking work, Angell asserts that the interdependence of nations and the interconnectedness of their economies make war an outdated and futile strategy. He presents compelling evidence and logical reasoning to demonstrate that armed aggression ultimately harms all parties involved, including the presumed victors.""The Great Illusion"" explores the economic and social consequences of war, debunking the notion that military strength guarantees national security or superiority. Angell's ideas have had a profound impact on the field of international relations and have influenced policymakers and peace activists alike.

European statesmanship, as revealed in the Treaty of Versailles, and in the conduct of international affairs since the Armistice, has recognised neither the fact of interdependence-the need for the economic unity of Europe-nor the futility of attempted coercion. Certain political ideas and passions give us an unworkable Europe. What is their nature? How have they arisen? How can they be corrected? These questions are part of the problem of sustenance; which is the first indispensable of civilisation.This book is a Historical Fiction, very nicely penned by the author. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
