Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from State Morality and a League of Nations Here are the two conflicting theories that have been set forth in these pages, and their interest is not merely academic, for if the first theory be incorrect, then we shall waste much time and incur much disappointment in trying to obtain from state action what a state is not calculated to produce. According to the second theory, we shall trust in political action only up to a certain point we shall not confide in it for the full accomplishment of human ideals we shall allow for state egotism so long as states exist, and shall regard universal brotherhood as a human rather than a political ideal. Politicians will only achieve What man kind in general Will and desire. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Standing at the edge of life's abyss, we seek meaningful order. We commonly find this 'symbolic immortality' in religion, civilization, state and nation. What happens, however, when the nation itself appears mortal? The Mortality and Morality of Nations seeks to answer this question, theoretically and empirically. It argues that mortality makes morality, and right makes might; the nation's sense of a looming abyss informs its quest for a higher moral ground, which, if reached, can bolster its vitality. The book investigates nationalism's promise of moral immortality and its limitations via three case studies: French Canadians, Israeli Jews, and Afrikaners. All three have been insecure about the validity of their identity or the viability of their polity, or both. They have sought partial redress in existential self-legitimation: by the nation, of the nation and for the nation's very existence.

Excerpt from The Morality of Nations: An Essay on the Theory of Politics But what are the principles of right? They cannot be pious opinions that a nation should keep treaties or should be honest. Such principles are too vague. They are like the old Kantian command to do one's duty. The real problem begins in the attempt to discover what is one's duty. So now the chief problem is to find out what the moral relationship between States really is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
