Extra informatie:- This work, originally published in 1840 and reprinted in 1916 with an introduction by James Brown Scott, is a visionary work advocating for peaceful conflict resolution through international cooperation. As a pioneering American pacifist, William Ladd (1778-1841) proposed the creation of a permanent international congress and court to arbitrate disputes between nations- ideas that prefigure institutions like the League of Nations and the United Nations. This edition highlights the enduring relevance of Ladds proposals during a time of global conflict (World War I). The book remains historically important for its early articulation of legal frameworks for global peace and diplomacy.
