Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating and comprehensive exploration of the War System, a complex and ancient establishment that has been employed to resolve international controversies. The author unveils its true nature by examining its origins, machinery, and the disastrous consequences it has wrought upon humanity throughout history. The book delves into the philosophical justifications for war, including the right to self-defense, the ethics of revolution, and the complex interplay between individual liberty and state sovereignty. By examining the intricate web of laws, customs, and preparations that constitute the War System, the author reveals its inherent folly and wickedness. The author also challenges the idea that war is an inevitable or necessary aspect of human nature. Instead, they argue that it is a product of a flawed system that has been perpetuated by fear, prejudice, and a lack of understanding. This book offers a powerful indictment of war as an obsolete and barbaric practice, and it proposes a vision of a more just and peaceful world that is free from its destructive grip.
