Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines history's role in providing guidance on the question of world peace. Its central assertion is that the future is likely to resemble the past, and that humans are born with a natural, social quality. It argues that by looking back at past attempts to form a unified world order, we can strengthen our belief that the goal of world peace is not only possible but likely. The volume opens with the earliest settled cultures of the Middle East and proceeds through antiquity to the efforts of Alexander the Great to fuse East and West under a single banner. Chapters explore the role of the Roman Empire, the mediaeval work of the church, and the ideas of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. The book closes with reflections on the League of Nations and the United Nations. Each historical vantage point is used to demonstrate the complex forces involved in the quest for a peaceful world, concluding with a look at the challenges and potential solutions we face today.
