Isn't war rooted in the vested interests of the ruling classes?
(But have not democracies proved as bellicose as other states?)
Should not political disputes be settled by civilised negotiations?
(But what if the adversary is not, by your standards, 'civilised'?)
Ought states to steer clear of other states' internal conflicts?
(Or should they help liberate oppressed peoples?) Which is better,
appeasement or a war to end war? Such questions reflect the
confusion that still besets liberal-minded men and women in the
face of war, despite centuries during which they have tried to
discover its causes and secure its abolition. Sir Michael Howard
traces the pattern in their attitudes from Erasmus to the Americans
after Vietnam, and concludes that peacemaking 'is a task which has
to be tackled afresh every day of our lives'.
