Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, written by a prominent Norwegian author, explores the ÑÐµÐ¼Ñ of war and its devastating effects on humanity. The author argues that war is a result of a backward state of civilization and maintains that statecraft and philosophy of the time have not been able to keep pace with the advancements in natural science. Consequently, we see a discordant mixture of high civilization and barbarism, with the use of highly advanced scientific instruments for primitive warfare. The author believes that the only way to end this cycle of violence is through the formation of a world-state or federation that would establish a common code of laws, a common tribunal, and a common military force, composed of contingents from all the federated states. The author asserts that this would create a new era in the life of humanity, where technical inventions can flourish and unfruitfulness and wastefulness can be avoided. The author's insights on the relationship between technological advancements and the evolution of statecraft and philosophy offer valuable perspectives on the topic of war and its prevention. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
